< Luka 7 >

1 Yesu pakamaliriti kutakula vyoseri kwa wantu, kagenditi Kafarinaumu.
And when He completed all His sayings in the ears of the people, He went into Capernaum;
2 Mkulu gwa wanjagila miya yimu kaweriti na ntumini yakamfiriti nentu. Ntumintumi kaweriti kalwala tashitashi.
and a certain centurion’s servant being ill, was about to die, who was much valued by him,
3 Mkulu ulii pakapikaniriti visoweru vya Yesu, kawatumiti wazewi wa Shiyawudi kumluwa kizi kamuponiziyi ntumintumi gwakuwi.
and having heard about Jesus, he sent to Him elders of the Jews, imploring Him, that having come He might thoroughly save his servant.
4 Wagenditi kwa Yesu na kumuhiga nentu pawalonga, “Muntu ayu kafiruwa gumtenderi shitwatila ashi.
And they, having come near to Jesus, were calling on Him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy to whom You will do this,
5 Kawafira wantu wetu na mweni katunyawira numba ya Mlungu.”
for he loves our nation, and he built to us the synagogue.”
6 Su Yesu kagenda pamuhera na womberi. Pakaweriti pakwegera na ukaya kwa mkulu ulii, mkulu ulii kawatumiti waganja wakuwi wamgambiri Yesu, “Mtuwa naguligaziya hera. Gwenga gufiruwa ndiri kwingira mnumba mwangu,
And Jesus was going on with them, and now when He is not far distant from the house the centurion sent to Him friends, saying to Him, “Lord, do not be troubled, for I am not worthy that You may enter under my roof;
7 na neni mona nfaa ndiri ata kwiza kwa gwenga. Kumbiti gutakuli hera, ntumini gwangu hakaweri mkomu.
for this reason I did not consider myself worthy to come to You, but say in a word, and my boy will be healed;
8 Mana neni viraa namuntu gwa pasi pa ukulu, nanawa wamanjagila yanuwalongoziyiti. Panumgambira yumu, ‘Gugendi!’ Yomberi kagenda na panumgambira yumonga, ‘Gwizi!’ Yomberi kiza na panumgambira ntumintumi gwangu, ‘Gutendi shintu ashi!’ Nayomberi katenda.”
for I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this [one], Go, and he goes; and to another, Be coming, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does [it].”
9 Yesu pakapikaniriti hangu kalikangasha, su kaligalambukiriti lipinga lya wantu lyalimfatiti pakalonga, “Nankuwagambirani, mpata ndiri kuwona muntu kana njimiru gambira ayu Muisraeli!”
And having heard these things Jesus wondered at him, and having turned to the multitude following Him, He said, “I say to you, not even in Israel did I find so much faith”;
10 Wantu walii pawasokiti ukaya kwa Mkulu wamwoniti ntumintumi ulii kawera mkomu nakamu.
and those sent, having turned back to the house, found the ailing servant in health.
11 Shakapanu, Yesu kagenditi lushi lwawalushema Naini, wafundwa wakuwi pamuhera na lipinga likulu lya wantu wagenda nayomberi.
And it came to pass, on the next day, He was going on to a city called Nain, and there were going with Him many of His disciples, and a great multitude,
12 Su pakaweriti pakwegera na mlyangu mkulu gwa Iushi, wantu wampapiti yakahowiti waweriti wankulawa kunja kwa Iushi. Yakahowiti kaweriti mwana gwagweka gwa mdala yakaweriti mkenja, na lipinga likulu lya wantu waweriti pamuhera nayomberi.
and as He came near to the gate of the city, then, behold, one dead was being carried forth, an only son of his mother, and she a widow, and a great multitude of the city was with her.
13 Mtuwa pakamwoniti mkenja ulii, kamwonera lusungu mdala ulii, kamgambiriti, “Nagulira.”
And the LORD having seen her, was moved with compassion toward her and said to her, “Do not be weeping”;
14 Shakapanu kalisegelera lijeneza lya yakahowiti na kulishinkula, wantu wawalipapiti wagoloka. Yesu kalonga, “Muntemba! Nukugambira gwimuki!”
and having come near, He touched the bier, and those carrying [it] stood still, and He said, “Young man, to you I say, Arise”;
15 Muntu ulii yakahowiti kalivaga, su kanja kuyowera. Yesu kamupa mawu gwakuwi.
and the dead sat up, and began to speak, and He gave him to his mother;
16 Wantu woseri weniti lyoga wamkwisiti Mlungu pawalonga, “Mbuyi mkulu kalawira pakati petu. Mlungu kiza kuwalopoziya wantu wakuwi!”
and fear took hold of all, and they were glorifying God, saying, “A great prophet has risen among us,” and, “God looked on His people.”
17 Visoweru avi vya Yesu viyeniyiti mulushi loseri lwa Yudeya na lushi zya pakwegera.
And the account of this went forth in all Judea about Him, and in all the region around.
18 Wafundwa wa Yohani wamgambiriti Yohani vitwatira avi vyoseri, nayomberi pakawashemiti kala awili wamu wa wafundwa wakuwi
And the disciples of John told him about all these things,
19 kawatumiti kwa Mtuwa wakamkosiyi, “Hashi, gwenga ndo gwamweni yatumuhepera, ama tumuheperi gwingi?”
and John having called near a certain two of his disciples, sent to Jesus, saying, “Are You He who is coming, or do we look for another?”
20 Wafundwa walii wamgendiriti Yesu na kumgambira, “Yohani Mbatiza katutuma kwaku tukukosiyi handa gwenga ndo uliya yakatakuliti gwankwiza ama tumuheperi gwingi?”
And having come near to Him, the men said, “John the Immerser sent us to You, saying, Are You He who is coming, or do we look for another?”
21 Shipindi shiraa shilii Yesu kaweriti kankuwaponiziya wantu wavuwa weniti na malweri na wamonga waniti na washamshera wadoda na kuwapanana wanalwisi wavuwa kulola.
And in that hour He cured many from diseases, and plagues, and evil spirits, and He granted sight to many blind.
22 Su Yesu kawankula wantumintumi wa Yohani pakalonga, “Mgendi mwakamgambiri Yohani vyoseri vyamuviwoniti na kuvipikinira, wanalwisi wawona, wavibyeketu wagendagenda, woseri walii yawawera na ungumbula wapungwa, yawawera na majogu vinu wapikinira, wahowiti su wazyuka na Shisoweru Shiwagira shibwerwa kwa wahushu.
And Jesus answering said to them, “Having gone on, report to John what you saw and heard, that blind men see again, lame walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf hear, dead are raised, poor have good news proclaimed;
23 Mbaka woseri walii wahera lyoga na neni.”
and blessed is he whoever may not be stumbled in Me.”
24 Su wajumbi wa Yohani pawawukiti kala, Yesu kanja kuligambira lipinga kwajili ya Yohani, “Pamgenditi kumlola Yohani kushiwala mfira kulola shintu gaa? Mfiriti kuwona gambira mateti ntambu yagatikinyika na lihega? Ndala!
And the messengers of John having gone away, He began to say to the multitudes concerning John: “What have you gone forth into the wilderness to look on? A reed shaken by the wind?
25 Su mgenditi kumlola muntu gwa ntambu gaa? Hashi mliholiti Mgenditi kumlola muntu kavaliti nguwu ziherepa? Ndala, wantu yawavala nguwu ziherepa na kubojola vinoga noga vyaviwera muukulu!
But what have you gone forth to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Behold, they in splendid clothing, and living in luxury, are in the houses of kings!
26 Su mung'ambiri, mgenditi kumlola muntu gwa ntambu gaa? Mgenditi kumlola mbuyi gwa Mlungu? Yina nakaka, tuwona gavuwa nentu kuliku mbuyi.
But what have you gone forth to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet:
27 Yohani ayu ndo yumu yawamtakula mukulemba, kulonga, ‘Mlungu kalonga, hanumtumi mjumbi gwangu hakakulonguleri kukunyawira njira kwajili yaku.’”
this is he concerning whom it has been written: Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, who will prepare Your way before You;
28 Yesu kamaliriti kwa kulonga, “Nukugambirani, Yohani ndo mkulu kuliku woseri yawalikaliti pasipanu. Kumbiti yakaweriti mdidini Muwufalumi wa Mlungu ndo mkulu kuliku Yohani.”
for I say to you, there is not a greater prophet, among those born of women, than John the Immerser; but the least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he.”
29 Wantu woseri wampikaniriti. Wantu wavuwa asa watola kodi ndo wagajimiriti Malagaliru Mananagala ga Mlungu, awa ndo walii Yohani yakawabatiziti.
And all the people having heard, and the tax collectors, declared God righteous, having been immersed with the immersion of John,
30 Kumbiti Mafalisayu pamuhera na wafunda wa Malagaliru wagulemiti mpangu gwa Mlungu na wamlemiti Yohani kawabatizi.
but the Pharisees and the lawyers put away the counsel of God for themselves, having not been immersed by him.
31 Yesu kongera kulonga, “Vinu wantu wa mashaka aga walifana na shintu gaa?
And the LORD said, “To what, then, will I liken the men of this generation? And to what are they like?
32 Walifana gambira wana yawalivaga pahala pa guliwu. Shipinga shimu shishigambizisiya shamonga, ‘Tuviniti msambu gwa ndowa kumbiti mwenga mvina ndiri! Twimba lwimbu lwa kudaya kumbiti mlila ndiri!’
They are like to children, to those sitting in a marketplace, and calling to one another, and saying, We piped to you, and you did not dance, we mourned to you, and you did not weep!
33 Yohani Mbatiza pakiziti, koyiti kuliya na kalanda ndiri divayi, kumbiti mwenga mlongiti, ‘Kana washamshera!’
For John the Immerser came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, He has a demon;
34 Kiziti Mwana gwa Muntu, kaliyiti shiboga na kulanda, kumbiti mwenga mtakula, ‘Mumloli muntu ayu, Kana lwaliya na mkologeru, ganja gwa watola kodi na wanavidoda!’
the Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, Behold, a man, a glutton, and a wine drinker, a friend of tax collectors and sinners;
35 Kumbiti luhala lwa Mlungu luwonekana kuwera lwa nakaka kwa wantu woseri yawalijimira.”
and the wisdom was justified from all her children.”
36 Mfalisayu yumu kamshemera Yesu walii shiboga sha pamihi pamuhera nayomberi na Yesu kingiriti mnumba mwa Mfarisayu na kulivaga pasi kuliya shiboga.
And a certain one of the Pharisees was asking Him that He might eat with him, and having gone into the house of the Pharisee He reclined,
37 Su palushi palii peniti na mdala yakaweriti na makaliru ga vidoda. Kapikaniriti handa Yesu kankuliya shiboga mnumba ya Falisayu, katoliti supa ya alabasta yayiweriti na utuli.
and behold, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, having known that He reclines in the house of the Pharisee, having provided an alabaster box of ointment,
38 Kagenda kagoloka pakwegera pamagulu pa Yesu pakalila na masozi gakuwi gamtulukiriti Yesu pamagulu. Kapukuta magulu ga Yesu kwa vilii zyakuwi na kunonera magulu, kagaswaga utuli.
and having stood behind, beside His feet, weeping, she began to wet His feet with the tears, and with the hairs of her head she was wiping, and was kissing His feet, and was anointing with the ointment.
39 Mfalisayu pakawoniti hangu, kalitakuliti pakalihola mumoyu mwakuwi, “Handa muntu ayu nakaka ndo mbuyi gwa Mlungu, hakavimani handa mdala yakakushinkula ka gaa, hakavimani makaliru ga vidoda ntambu yakawera nagu!”
And the Pharisee who called Him, having seen, spoke within himself, saying, “This One, if He were a prophet, would have known who and of what kind [is] the woman who touches Him, that she is a sinner.”
40 Yesu kamgambira Mfarisayu uliya, “Simoni, nana shintu shakukugambira.” Simoni kamwankula, “Yina mfunda gung'ambiri.”
And Jesus answering said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you”; and he says, “Teacher, say on.”
41 Yesu kamgambira, “Kuweriti na wantu awili yawamkopiti muntu yakakopesha mpiya. Yumu kakopiti senti zivuwa na yumonga senti zivuwa ndiri.
“Two debtors were to a certain creditor; one was owing five hundred denarii, and the other fifty;
42 Pawasinditi kulipa uwanda wawu, muntu uliya kawalekiziya woseri awili. Vinu pakati pa wantu awili walii, yoshi hakamfiri nentu muntu ayu yakawalekiziyiti?”
and they not having [with which] to give back, he forgave both; which of them then, do you say, will love him more?”
43 Simoni kamwankula, “Nuvimana kuwera, ulii yawamlekiziyiti uwanda mkulu nentu” Yesu kamgambira, “Gutakula nweri.”
And Simon answering said, “I suppose that to whom he forgave the more”; and He said to him, “You judged correctly.”
44 Kamgalambukira mdala uliya na kumgambira Simoni, “Gumwona mdala ayu? Niziti pakaya paku, gunupa ndiri mashi gakunaviya magulu gangu, kumbiti mdala ayu kaganaviya magulu gangu kwa masozi gakuwi na kumpukuta kwa vilii zyakuwi.
And having turned to the woman, He said to Simon, “See this woman? I entered into your house; you did not give water for My feet, but this woman wet My feet with tears, and wiped with the hairs of her head;
45 Gwenga gunamsiya ndiri kwa kunonera, kumbiti mdala ayu kwanjira paningiliti kaweriti pakanonera magulu gangu.
you did not give a kiss to Me, but this woman, from what [time] I came in, did not cease kissing My feet;
46 Gwenga gunswagaziya ndiri lipaki mumtuwi mwangu, kumbiti mdala ayu kagapakaziya magulu gangu kwa utuli.
you did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman anointed My feet with oil;
47 Su nukugambira, kwa kufira kwakuwi kukulu kulanguziyiti nakaka kuwera vidoda vivuwa vyakaweriti navyi vilekiziwa. Kumbiti ulii yakalekiziwa padidini kalanguziya kufira padidini hera.”
therefore I say to you, her many sins have been forgiven, because she loved much; but to whom is forgiven little, loves little.”
48 Su Yesu kamgambira mdala uliya, “Gulekiziwa vidoda vyaku.”
And He said to her, “Your sins have been forgiven”;
49 Wantu wamonga yawaweriti walivaga pameza wanjiti kulitakuliziyana weni pawalonga, “Ayu gaa yakaweza kulekiziya vidoda?”
and those dining with Him began to say within themselves, “Who is this, who also forgives sins?”
50 Kumbiti Yesu kamgambira mdala uliya, “Kujimira kwaku kukulopoziya, gugendi kwa ponga.”
And He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you, be going on to peace.”
