< Luka 5 >

1 Lishaka limu Yesu kagolokiti pampenku pa litanda lya Genezareti, aku wantu waweriti wankulibabanika wapikiniri visoweru vya Mlungu.
And it came to pass, that as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret.
2 Kawoniti mitumbwi miwili mumpenku mwa litanda, walowa wa wasomba waweriti wawuka, wagenditi kuzigulula wavu zawu.
And saw two boats standing by the lake: but the fishermen had gone out of them, and were washing [their] nets.
3 Yesu kagenda kwingira mumtumbwi mwa Simoni na kamgambiriti kagusegeziyi mtumbwi gulii palongolu padidini mulitanda. Yesu kalivagiti mumtumbwi na kanjiti kulifunda lipinga lya wantu.
And he entered into one of the boats, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the boat.
4 Pakamaliriti kala kutakula, kamgambira Simoni, “Gushimi mtumbwi kugenda kumashi gagenda, gwenga na wayagu mwakazidibisiyi zinyavu zyeni mlowi wasomba.”
Now when he had left speaking, he said to Simon, Lanch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
5 Simoni kamwankula, “Mtuwa, twenga pashiru poseri tutenditi lihengu liraa ali kumbiti tupata ndiri wasomba. Toziya gwenga gutakula hangu, neni hanuzidibisiyi zinyavu.”
And Simon answering said to him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing; nevertheless, at thy word I will let down the net.
6 Pawadibisiyiti kala zinyavu wamemiti wasomba wavuwa mpaka zinyavu zyanja kudegeka.
And when they had done this, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net broke.
7 Wawashemiti wayawu yawaweriti mumtumbwi gumonga wizi wawatangi. Womberi wiza na wamemisiya wasomba mitumbwi yoseri miwili mpaka yanja kulidiba.
And they beckoned to [their] partners, who were in the other boat, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink.
8 Simoni Peteru pakawoniti yagalawiriti, kasuntamalira palongolu pa Yesu pakalonga, “Guwuki palongolu pangu, Mtuwa! Toziya neni muntu yanwera na vidoda!”
When Simon Peter saw [it], he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.
9 Simoni na wayaguwi woseri walikangashiti pawawoniti ntambu yawapatiti wasomba wavuwa.
For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:
10 Wayaguwi na Simon, ashina Yakobu na Yohani, wana wa Zebedayu nawomberi walikangasha. Yesu kamgambira Simoni, “Nagutila, kwanjira vinu haguweri mlowa wantu.”
And so [was] also James and John the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not: from henceforth thou shalt catch men.
11 Wasegeziyiti mitumbwi yawu pampenku palitanda, waleka kila shintu, wamfata Yesu.
And when they had brought their boats to land, they forsook all, and followed him.
12 Su Yesu pakaweriti mulushi, kuweriti na muntu yakana ugumbula. Pakamwoniti Yesu, kasuntama makukama kulongolu kwa Yesu kamluwa pakalonga, “Mtuwa pagufira gumweni, guweza gumpungi neni.”
And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold, a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus, fell on [his] face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
13 Yesu kanyosha liwoku lyakuwi na kumshinkula pakalonga, “Neni nfira hangu, gupungwi!” Pala palii ugumbula umlekeziya.
And he put forth [his] hand, and touched him, saying, I will: Be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.
14 Yesu kamsinga pakalonga, “Nagumgambira muntu yoseri, su gugendi gwakaliranguziyi kwa Mtambika mkulu, gulaviyi tambiku ntambu yakalagaliriti Musa kwa kupungwa kwaku su muntu yoseri kavimani kuwera gupona.”
And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded for a testimony to them.
15 Visoweru vya Yesu vyeniyiti nentu. Lipinga lya wantu limgendiriti kumpikinira na wamonga wafiliti waponiziwi malweli gawu.
But so much the more a fame of him went abroad: and great multitudes came together to hear and to be healed by him of their infirmities.
16 Su Yesu kawukiti na kagenda pahala pagweka, kaweriti kankumluwa Mlungu.
And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed.
17 Lishaka limu Yesu kaweriti kankufunda, Mafalisayu wamu pamuhera na wafunda wa Malagaliru yawalivagiti palii weni walawiti mukila Iushi lwa Galilaya na Yudeya na kulawa Yerusalemu. Likakala lya Mtuwa liweriti kwa Yesu kwajili ya kuponiziya walweli.
And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, who had come out of every town of Galilee, and Judea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was [present] to heal them.
18 Wantu wamu wiziti pawampapa mushitanda muntu yakalewelekiti, wajeriti kumwingiziya mnumba su wamtuli palongolu pa Yesu.
And behold, men brought in a bed a man who was taken with the palsy: and they sought [means] to bring him in, and to lay [him] before him.
19 Toziya ya lipinga lya wantu, wasinditi kwingira nayomberi mnumba. Su wamkweniziya mlweri ulii pashitwiku, wadonola pampindi palitala, shakapanu wamseleziya mlweri ulii mushitanda mwakuwi mpaka pakati kulongolu kwa Yesu. Wantu wamsheshi wankumsulusiya mlweri kupitira palitala.
And when they could not find by what [way] they might bring him in, because of the multitude, they went upon the house-top, and let him down through the tiling with [his] couch, into the midst before Jesus.
20 Yesu pakawoniti njimiru yawu nkulu, kamgambiriti mlweri ulii, “Ganja gwangu, vidoda vyaku vilekiziwa.”
And when he saw their faith, he said to him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.
21 Wafunda wa Malagaliru na Mafalisayu su wanja kulikosiya pawalonga, “Ayu muntu gaa, kamwigilanga Mlungu! Mlungu gweka yakuwi ndo kaweza kulekiziya vidoda.”
And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this who speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?
22 Yesu kavimaniti kala vyawaliholiti su kawakosiya, “Hashi, mulihola hangu mumyoyu mwenu?
But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering, said to them, What reason ye in your hearts?
23 Shoshi shikamala ndiri, ‘Kulonga vidoda vyaku vilekiziwa,’ ama kutakula, ‘Gugoloki na gugendigendi?’
Which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Rise and walk?
24 Nfira muvimani, Mwana gwa Muntu kana uwezu pasipanu wa kulekiziya vidoda.” Su kamgambiriti muntu yakalewelekiti, “Nunkugambira, gugoloki na gutoli mkeka gwaku na gugendi ukaya kwaku!”
But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, He said to the sick with the palsy, I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thy house.
25 Pala palii muntu ulii yakalewelekiti kagoloka kulongolu kwawu woseri, katola mkeka gwakuwi na kugendagenda na kagenditi ukaya pakamkwisa Mlungu.
And immediately he arose before them, and took up that on which he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying God.
26 Woseri walikangasha nentu! Waweriti na lyoga, wamkwisiti Mlungu pawalonga, “Tulola mauzauza leru!”
And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to-day.
27 Shakapanu, Yesu kalawa kunja, kamwoniti yakatola kodi litawu lyakuwi Lawi, kalivaga muofisi mwakuwi. Yesu kamgambira, “Gunfati.”
And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said to him, Follow me.
28 Lawi kagoloka, kaleka kila shintu, kamfatiti yomberi.
And he left all, arose, and followed him.
29 Lawi kamtenderiti Yesu msambu mkulu nentu pakaya pakuwi, mngati mwa wahenga, waweriti watola kodi wavuwa pamuhera na wantu wamonga.
And Levi made him a great feast in his own house; and there was a great company of publicans, and of others that sat down with them.
30 Mafalisayu wamu na wafunda wa Malagaliru, winginikiti kwa wafundwa wa Yesu pawalonga, “Iwera hashi mwega mliya shiboga na kulanda pamuhera na watola kodi na wantu yawawera na vidoda?”
But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?
31 Yesu kawankula, “Wantu wakomu walandaga ndiri mtera, kumbiti woseri yawalwala ndo walandaga mtera.
And Jesus answering, said to them, They that are well need not a physician; but they that are sick.
32 Niza ndiri kuwashema wantu waheri, kumbiti niza kuwashema wantu yawawera na vidoda waleki vidoda vyawatenda.”
I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
33 Wantu wamonga wamgambiriti Yesu, “Wafundwa wa Yohani Mbatiza, woyiti kuliya mala zivuwa na kumluwa Mlungu na wafundwa wa Mafalisayu watendaga hera hangu, kumbiti wafundwa waku wankuliya na kulanda.”
And they said to him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise [the disciples] of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink?
34 Yesu kawankula, “Hashi muweza kuwatenda wahenga wa mpalu gwa ndowa wafungi pawawera na mpalu gwa ndowa? Hapeni watendi hangu!
And he said to them, Can ye make the children of the bride-chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?
35 Su lishaka halizi pawamtola mpalu gwa ndowa, womberi ndo hawoyi kuliya.”
But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then they will fast in those days.
36 Yesu viraa kawagambira kwa mfanu, “Kwahera muntu hakatoli shiraka sha nguwu yasyayi na kusonera munguwu ngona. Pakatenda hangu, su nguwu yasyayi hawayidegi, kayi shiraka sheni hapeni shilinganiri na nguwu ngona.
And he spoke also a parable to them: No man putteth a piece of a new garment upon an old: if otherwise, then both the new maketh a rent, and the piece that was [taken] out of the new, agreeth not with the old.
37 Kwahera muntu yakalekera divayi yasyayi mumihaku ya lukuli migona, toziya divayi ya syayi hayipanti mihaku ya lukuli na divayi yeni hayitiki na mihaku ya lukuli hayidegeki.
And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles will perish.
38 Mala zoseri, divayi yasyayi ilekerwa mumihaku ya lukuli yasyayi!
But new wine must be put into new bottles, and both are preserved.
39 Kwahera muntu yakafira kulanda divayi yasyayi pakalanditi kala divayi ngona, su katakula, ‘Divayi ngona ndo iherepa nentu.’”
No man also having drank old [wine], immediately desireth new: for he saith, The old is better.
