Luka 18
1 Yesu kawagambiliti wantumintumi wakuwi mfanu, kawafunda wafiruwa kuluwa Mlungu mashaka goseri pota na koya.
He was speaking then (and *ko*) a parable to them about it needing always to pray (they *no*) and not to lose heart
2 Yesu kalonga, “Mlushi lumu kuweriti na mtoza yakamtira ndiri Mlungu, ama kumjali muntu.
saying; A judge certain there was in a certain city God not fearing and man not respecting.
3 Na kuweriti na mkenja mulushi lulii yakamgenderiti hakimu pakaluwa haki yakuwi pakatakula, ‘Guntangi mpati shanfuruwa kupata kulawa kwa mngondu gwangu.’
A widow then there was in the city that and she was coming to him saying; do avenge me of the adversary of mine.
4 Kwa shipindi shivuwa hakimu kafiriti ndiri kumtanga, kumbiti upeleru wakuwi kaligambira mweni, ‘Tembera neni namtira ndiri Mlungu pota kulishera wantu,
And not (he was desiring [to do] *N(k)O*) for a time. afterward however he said within himself; If even God not I fear (nor *N(k)O*) man respect,
5 toziya mkenja ayu kangaziyaga nentu, hanumwamuliri shauri lyakuwi. Pantenda ndiri hakendereyi kwiza panu na upeleru hakang'aziyi nentu!’”
because yet it occasioning me trouble widow this I will avenge her, so that not to end coming she may exhaust me.
6 Mtuwa kendereyiti kutakula, “Mpikaniri ntambu yakatakuliti mtoza ayu mdoda.
Said then the Lord; do hear what the judge unrighteous says;
7 Vinu, hashi Mlungu hapeni kawamuliri wantu wakuwi yawamlilira pashiru na paliwala? Hashi, hakakawi kuwatanga?
And God certainly not (may do *N(k)O*) the avenging of the elect of Him the [ones] crying out (to *k*) (to Him *N(k)O*) day and night, and (be patient *N(k)O*) in regard to them?
8 Nukugambirani, hakawamuliri kanongola. Kumbiti Mwana gwa Muntu pakiza hakuweri na njimiru pasipanu?”
I say to you that He will carry out the avenging of them with speed. Nevertheless the Son of Man having come surely not will He find faith on the earth?
9 Yesu kawagambiriti viraa mfanu gwagufata gwa walii yawalilola kuwera waherepa na kuwazarawu wantu wamonga.
He spoke now also to some having trusted in themselves that they are righteous and (despising *NK(o)*) the others parable this.
10 Kalonga, “Kuweriti na wantu wawili wakweniti kugenda Kunumba nkulu ya Mlungu kuluwa. Yumu kaweriti Mfalisayu na yumonga mtola kodi.”
Men two went up into the temple to pray, the one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
11 Mfalisayu kagolokiti gweka yakuwi na kuluwa shimoyumoyu pakalonga, “‘Mlungu mayagashii, neni nanalwaliya ndiri, nampayu ndiri ama mndiyandiya gambira wantu wamonga. Nonga mayagashii kwaku toziya neni nulifana ndiri gambira mtola kodi ayu.
The Pharisee having stood toward himself these things was praying; O God, I thank You that not I am (like *NK(o)*) the rest of the men — swindlers, unrighteous, adulterers — or even like this tax collector.
12 Nfunga mala mbili mulijuma, ndaviya fungu lilongu lya vintu vyampatiti.’”
I fast twice in the week, I tithe all things as much as I gain.
13 Kumbiti mtola kodi kagolokiti kwa kutali, kanyasula ndiri sheni shakuwi kumpindi, su kahinginika mumoyu mwakuwi pakalonga, “Mlungu, gumoneri lusungu neni yantenda vidoda!”
(and *ko*) (but *no*) the tax collector afar off having stood not was willing not even the eyes to lift up to heaven but was striking (into *k*) the breast (of him *NK(o)*) saying: O God, do be merciful to me to the sinner!
14 Yesu kalonga, “Nukugambirani, mtola kodi kawuyiti ukaya pawamlekeziyiti vidoda vyakatenditi, kumbiti Mfarisayu ulii wamlekeziyiti ndiri vidoda vyakatenda. Toziya woseri yawafira kulikweniziya hawawasulusiyi, na woseri yawalisulusiya weni hawawakweniziyi.”
I say to you; went down this one justified to the house of him (rather than *k*) (compared with *n(o)*) (that [one]. *N(k)O*) For everyone who is exalting himself will be humbled, the [one] however humbling himself will be exalted.
15 Wantu wamu wamjegiriti Yesu wana wadidini su kawatulili mawoku gakuwi. Wafundwa pawawoniti, wawalewelera ntambu yawatenda,
They were bringing then to Him also the infants that them He may touch; having seen however the disciples (were rebuking *N(k)O*) them.
16 kumbiti Yesu kawashema wana wizi kwakuwi pakalonga, “Muwaleki wana wadidini wizi kwaneni, namuwalewelera toziya Ufalumi wa Mlungu ndo wa wantu gambira awa.
But Jesus (called *N(k)O*) them (speaking; *N(k)O*) do permit the little children to come to Me and not do forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God.
17 Nukugambirani nakaka! Muntu yoseri yakanka ndiri Ufalumi wa Mlungu gambira mwana mdidini hapeni kingiri amu.”
Amen I say to you; who[ever] (maybe *N(k)O*) not shall receive the kingdom of God as a child, certainly not shall enter into it.
18 Mkulu gwa Wayawudi kamkosiyiti Yesu, “mfunda muheri, ntendi shishi nwezi kupata ukomu wa mashaka goseri?” (aiōnios g166)
And asked a certain Him ruler saying; Teacher good, what having done life eternal will I inherit? (aiōnios g166)
19 Yesu kamkosiya, “Iwera ashi gunshema muheri? Kwahera muntu yakawera muheri kumbiti Mlungu gweka yakuwi.
Said then to him Jesus; Why Me you call good? No [one is] good only except one God.
20 Gugamana malagaliru, ‘Naguwera muhumba, nagulaga, nagwiwa, nagumtakulila mpayu muntu yoseri, guwapanani ligoya tati na mawu gwaku.’”
The commandments You know: Not shall you commit adultery, not shall you murder, not shall you steal, not shall you bear false witness, do honor the father of you and the mother (of you. *k*)
21 Yomberi kawankula, “Kwanjira panweriti mdidini, nugajimira malagaliru goseri aga.”
And he said; These all (I kept *N(k)O*) from [the] youth (of mine. *ko*)
22 Yesu pakapikaniriti aga kamgambira, “Guleka shintu shimu shagufiruwa kutenda. Guwuzi kila shintu shaguwera nashu na guwagawiri wahushu mpiya azi, na gwenga haguweri mlundamali kumpindi, su gwizi na gunfati.”
Having heard then (these things *k*) Jesus said to him; Yet one thing to you is lacking: All as much as you have do sell and do distribute to [the] poor, and you will have treasure in (the *no*) (heavens; *N(k)O*) and come, do follow Me.
23 Kumbiti muntu ulii pakapikaniriti aga, kahinginikiti nentu toziya kaweriti mlunda nentu.
And having heard these things very sorrowful (he became; *N(k)O*) he was for rich extremely.
24 Yesu kawoniti ntambu yakahinginikiti na katakula, “Ntambu ayi hayiweri vikamala kwa wantu walunda kwingira mu Ufalumi wa Mlungu.
Having seen then him Jesus sorrowful became saying; How difficult [for] those riches having [when] into the kingdom of God (they enter. *N(k)O*)
25 Hayiweri ikamala kwa walunda mali kwingira mu Ufalumi wa Mlungu kuliku shigongolu shawamshema Ngamiya kupena mushitoboli sha sindanu.”
Easier for it is a camel through (an eye of a needle *N(k)O*) to go than a rich man into the kingdom of God to enter.
26 Wantu walii pawapikaniriti aga wakosiya, “Su gaa hakalopoziwi?”
Said then those having heard; Then who is able to be saved?
27 Yesu kawankula, “Gawezekana ndiri kwa wantu, kumbiti kwa Mlungu gawezekana.”
But He said; The [things] impossible with men possible with God are.
28 Peteru kamgambira, “Guloli! Twenga tuleka kaya zetu na kukufata gwenga.”
Said then Peter; Behold we ourselves (having abandoned *N(k)O*) (*no*) ([our] own [things] *N(k)O*) (and *k*) followed You.
29 Yesu kawagambira, “Yina! Nukugambirani nakaka muntu yoseri yakalekiti numba, ama mdala, ama walongu, ama mawu na watati wakuwi, ama wana toziya ya Ufalumi wa Mlungu
And He said to them; Amen I say to you that no [one] there is who has left house or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God,
31 Yesu kawatoliti wantumintumi walii lilongu na wawili na kuwagambira, “Mpikaniri! Twankugenda Yerusalemu kulii kila shintu wambuyi wa Mlungu walembiti, kuusu Mwana gwa Muntu hagalawiri.
Having taken aside then the Twelve He said to them; Behold we go up to (Jerusalem, *N(k)O*) and will be accomplished all things which written through the prophets about the Son of Man;
32 Hawamupanani kwa wantu yawaweriti ndiri Wayawudi, na womberi hawamtenderi lidufiya na hawamwigilangi na hawamtemeri mata.
He will be betrayed for to the Gentiles and will be mocked and will be insulted and will be spit upon,
33 Hawamsyatangi ndomontu na hawamlagi, kumbiti lishaka lya tatu kwanjira pakahowiti hakazyuki.”
And having flogged [Him] they will kill Him, and on the day third He will rise again.
34 Kumbiti wantumintumi wavimaniti ndiri vintu vyoseri avi, mana ya visoweru viweriti vififwa kwawomberi, na wavimaniti ndiri shakatakuliti Yesu.
And they themselves no [thing] of these things understood, and was declaration this hidden from them, and neither they were knowing the [things] being spoken.
35 Yesu pakaweriti kapakwegera na Yeriku, kuweriti na muntu yakana lwisi yakalivagiti panjira pakaluwa.
It came to pass then in the drawing near by Him to Jericho a blind [man] certain was sitting beside the road (begging. *N(k)O*)
36 Pakapikaniriti lipinga lya wantu lyankupita kakosiya, “Kwana shishi?”
Having heard now a crowd passing along he was asking what (maybe *o*) would be this.
37 Womberi wamgambira, “Yesu gwa Nazareti kankupita.”
They told then to him that Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.
38 Nayomberi kalila kwa liziwu likulu, “Yesu! Mwana gwa Dawudi! Gumoneri lusungu!”
And he called out saying; Jesus Son of David, do have mercy on me.
39 Wantu wawalongoleriti wamkalipira pawamgambira kanyamalili. Kumbiti yomberi kendereyiti kubotanga, “Mwana gwa Dawudi! Gumoneri lusungu!”
And those going before were rebuking him that (he may be silent. *N(k)O*) He himself however much more was crying out; Son of David, do have mercy on me.
40 Yesu kagolokiti, na kawagambira wamjegeri muntu kana lwisi ulii. Muntu kana lwisi pakasokiti pakwegela, Yesu kamkosiya,
Having stopped then Jesus commanded him to be brought to Him. When was approaching then he He asked him;
41 “Gufira nukutenderi shishi?” Nayomberi kawankula, “Mtuwa nduwa mpati kuwona kayi.”
(saying *ko*) What to you desire you I may do? And he said; Lord, that I may receive sight.
42 Yesu kamgambira, “Guwoni! Kwakunjimira kwaku, ndo gupona.”
And Jesus said to him; do receive sight: The faith of you has healed you.
43 Pala palii, kaweza kuwona, na kamgendera Yesu, kalonga mayagashii kwa Mlungu. Lipinga lya wantu pawawoniti hangu, wamkwisiti Mlungu.
And immediately he received sight and was following Him glorifying God. And all the people having seen [it] gave praise to God.
