< Luka 8 >

1 Shipindi shimonga Yesu kagenditi mwanja kupitila mlushi na muvijiji pakabwera Visoweru viwagila vya Ufalumi wa Mlungu. Wantumini lilongu na wawili wagenditi pamuhera nayomberi
Afterward he traveled through cities and villages, proclaiming the joyful tidings of the Reign of God, being attended by the twelve,
2 na kuweriti na wadala wamu yawaponiziyitwi washamshera na malweli, Mariya yawamshemiti Magidalena, yawamuusiyiti washamshera saba,
and by certain women, who had been delivered from evil spirits and distempers; Mary, called Magdalene, out of whom went seven demons;
3 Yoana mweni mpalu gwakuwi Kuza yakaweriti mtenda lihengu mkulu gwa Herodi, viraa vilii kuweriti na Susana na wadala wamonga wavua watumiiti vyawaweriti navi kumtanga Yesu na wantumini wakuwi.
Joanna, wife of Chuza, Herod's steward; Susanna, and several others, who assisted him with their property.
4 Wantu waweriti wankumwizira Yesu kulawa kila Iushi na pawaliwoniti pamuhera waweriti lipinga likulu, su yomberi kawagambiriti mfanu agu,
Now, when a great multitude was assembled, and the people were flocking to him, out of the cities, he spoke by a parable.
5 “Mkweta mbeyu kagenditi kukweta mbeyu. Pakaweriti kankukweta mbeyu, mbeyu zimonga zitulukiti munjira na wagendagenda munjira wazitimbanga na wampongu waziliya.
The sower went out to sow his grain: and in sowing, part fell by the way-side, and was crushed under foot, or picked up by the birds;
6 Zimonga zitulukira mumabuwi ga mulitapaka na pazimeriti kala ziyanja kunyala toziya litapaka liweriti lya mashi ndiri.
part fell upon a rock, and when it was sprung up, withered away for want to moisture;
7 Zimonga zitulukiriti mumisontu, pazimeriti, misontu ilii izibabanika na zisinda kukula.
part of it also fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it;
8 Na mbeyu zimonga zitulukiriti mulitapaka liherepa, zimera na kulera viboga vivuwa.” Yesu kamaliriti kwa kutakula, “Yakana makutu kapikaniri!”
and part fell into good soil, and sprung up, and yielded increase, a hundred fold. Having said this, he cried, Whosoever has ears to hear, let him hear.
9 Wafundwa wakuwi wamkosiyiti Yesu mana ya mfanu agu,
And his disciples asked him, saying, What does this parable mean?
10 nayomberi kawankula, “Mwenga mpananwa kuumana ubada wa Ufalumi wa Mlungu, kumbiti wamonga wavimana ndiri mpaka nuwagambiri kwa mifanu, su pawalola hapeni wawoni na pawapikanira hapeni wavimani.
He answered, It is your privilege to know the secrets of the Reign of God, which, to others, are couched in parables; that, though they look, they may not perceive; that though they hear, they may not understand.
11 “Mfanu agu ndo gutakula hangu, mbeyu ndo shisoweru sha Mlungu.
Now, this is the meaning of the parable. The seed is the word of God.
12 Mbeyu zilii zyazitulukiriti munjira mana yakuwi, woseri yawapikanira shisoweru sha Mlungu, kumbiti Shetani kiza na kushiwusiya shisoweru shilii mumyoyu mwawu, su hapeni wajimili na kulopoziwa.
By the wayside are meant those hearers out of whose hearts the devil coming, takes away the word, these they should believe, and be saved.
13 Mbeyu zyazitulukiriti mulibuwi mana yakuwi woseri yawapikanira ujumbi na kuuwanka kwa nemeru. Kumbiti wahera mishigira mitali, wajimira kwa shipindi shididini hera na shipindi sha kujerwa pashiza, waleka shawapikaniriti.
By the rock are meant those, who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; yet not having it rooted in them, are but temporary believers; for in the time of trial they fall off.
14 Mbeyu zilii zyaziturukiriti mumisontu mana yakuwi, woseri yawapikaniriti shisoweru sha Mlungu, su lyoga na ulunda na vinoganoga vyawabojola hapeni waleri mabwajubwaju yagakamala.
By the ground incumbered with thorns, are meant those hearers who are entangled in the business, and pursuits, and pleasures of life; which stifle the word, so that it brings no fruit to maturity.
15 Na mbeyu zilii zyazitulukiriti mulitapaka liherepa mana yakuwi, woseri yawashipikanira shisoweru sha Mlungu, pawashijimila kwa moyu gwoseri na gwa kujimira. Awa ndo wagangamala mpaka pawalera mabwajubwaju.”
But by the good soil are meant those, who, having heard the word, retain it in a good and honest heart, and persevere in bringing forth fruit.
16 “Wantu hapeni wawashi limuliku na kuligubikira mulidebi ama walituli mulivungu mwa shitanda. Kumbiti hawalituli pampindi pashintambi su wantu pawingira mnumba wawoni kulangala ndaa.
A lamp is never lighted to be covered with a vessel, or put under a bed; but to be set on a stand, that they who enter may see the light.
17 “Shoseri shawatenditi kwa kufifwa hashiwoneki na shoseri shawatenditi muluwindu hashimaniki na woseri.
For there is no secret which shall not be discovered; nor anything concealed which shall not be known, and become public.
18 “Mlikali weri, ntambu yampikanira, toziya yakawera na shintu hawamwongeri, kumbiti ulii yakahera shintu ata shilii shakawera nashi hawampoki.”
Take heard, therefore, how you hear; for to him who has, more shall be given; but from him who has not, shall be taken even that which he seems to have.
19 Mawu gwa Yesu na walongu wakuwi wamgenderiti, kumbiti wasinda kumsegelera pakwegera toziya ya lipinga lya wantu.
Then his mother and brothers came to speak with him; but could not get near him for the crowd.
20 Muntu yumu kamgambiriti Yesu, “Mawu na walongu waku wakunja, wafira wakuwoni.”
And it was told him by some persons, Your mother and your brothers are without, desiring to see you.
21 Yesu kawagambiriti woseri, “Mawu na walongu wangu ndo woseri yawashipikanira shisoweru sha Mlungu na kushijimira.”
But he, answering, said to them, My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God, and obey.
22 Lishaka limu Yesu pamuhera na wafundwa wakuwi wakweniti mumtumbwi na kawagambira, “Tuloki litanda, tugendi kumwambu.” Su wanja mwanja.
One day, Jesus having gone into a bark with his disciples, said to them, Let us cross the lake. Accordingly they set sail.
23 Pawaweriti wankuloka, Yesu kaweriti na mpota su kagonja. Lyega likulu lyanja kuvuma, mashi ganja kwingira mumtumbwi, su wawera mukutenduwa, kubidukira mumashi.
But while they sailed, he fell asleep; and there blew such a storm upon the lake, as filled the bark with water, and endangered lives.
24 Wantumini wamgendera Yesu na kumwimusiya, walonga, “Mtuwa, Mtuwa! Twankusokera!” Yesu kimuka, kalikalipira lyega pamuhera na mawimbi ga mashi, su vyoseri vyoya na kuweriti kuzindawala jiii.
And they came to him, and awakened him, saying, Master, Master, we perish! Then he arose and rebuked the wind, and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Kawagambira wantumini wakuwi, “Yakoshi njimiru yenu?” Kumbiti womberi walikangasha na kuwera na lyoga, waligambiziyana weni, “Ayu muntu gwa ntambu gaa? Kalikalipiriti lyega na mawimbi ga mashi na vyoseri vimjimira!”
And Jesus said to them, Where is your faith? But they said one to another, with fear and admiration, Who is this that commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?
26 Yesu na wantumintumi wakuwi wendereyiti na mwanja, wasoka kumpwani kwa isi ya Gerasi yapakwegera na Galilaya, kumwambu kulitanda.
And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite to Galilee.
27 Yesu pakasulukiti kumpenku, kaliwoniti na muntu yakeniti washamshera, kamwizira kulawa mulushi. Kwa shipindi shivuwa muntu ayu kaweriti kagendagenda shivula na kalikala ndiri ukaya, kumbiti kalikaliti kumapumba.
Being come ashore, a man of the city met him, who had been long possessed by demons; and who wore no clothes, and had no habitation but the sepulchers.
28 Pakamwoniti Yesu, kabotanga, kasuntama pamagulu ga Yesu pakalonga kwa liziwu likulu, “Yesu Mwana gwa Mlungu gwa Kumpindi nentu! Gufira kutenda ashi kwa neni? Shondi shondi nukuluwa naguntenda!”
When he saw Jesus, he roared out, and threw himself at his feet, crying, What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beseech you, do not torment me.
29 Kalongiti hangu toziya Yesu kamgambiriti shamshera kamlawi. Shipindi shivuwa shamshera ulii kamwigilanga muntu ayu, tembera wantu wamtuliti mushibetubetu, mawoku na magulu gakuwi wagatawiti kwa minyololu kumbiti yomberi kayidumuliti na shamshera kamtugiziyiti kushiwala.
(For he had ordered the unclean spirit to come out of the man; for it had frequently seized him, so that when he was chained and fettered, he broke his bonds, and was driven by the fiend into the desert.)
30 Yesu kamkosiya muntu uliya, “Litawa lyaku gwagani?” Yomberi kamwankula, “Litawu lyangu ‘Tuvuwa.’” Katakuriti hangu toziya kaweriti na washamshera wavuwa.
Then Jesus asked him, saying, What is your names?" He answered, Legion; because many demons had entered into him.
31 Washamshera wamluwiti Yesu nakawawinga kugenda mulirindi likulu. (Abyssos g12)
And they entreated him, that he would not command them to go into the deep; (Abyssos g12)
32 Palii pawaweriti na lipinga likulu lya wamtumbi lya pakwegera, waweriti wakuliya mumpeku mwa mulugongu. Su washamshera wamluwiti Yesu kawajimiri wawayingiri wamtumbi, nayomberi kawajimira.
but, as there was a numerous herd of swine feeding on the mountain, that he would permit them to enter into the swine. And he permitted them.
33 Washamshera wamlawiti muntu uliya na kugenda kuwayingira wamtumbi. Wamtumbi woseri watugiti pawaserera na kutulukira mumashi na wafuwiti woseri.
Then the demons having quitted the man, entered into the swine; and the herd rushed down a precipice into the lake, and were drowned.
34 Walolera wa mifugu walii pawawoniti galii yagalawiriti, watugiriti mulushi na muvijiji pawalonga shashilawiriti
The herdsmen, seeing this, fled, and spread the news through the city and villages.
35 Wantu wiza kulola shashilawiriti na pawaweriti wankumwizira Yesu, wamuwoniti muntu uliya yakeniti na washamshera kalikaliti pakwegera pamagulu ga Yesu, kaweriti kavaliti nguwu na kana mahala, su woseri waweriti na lyoga.
And the inhabitants flocked out to see what had happened. Being come to Jesus, and finding the man of whom the demons were dispossessed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind, they were afraid.
36 Woseri yawaviwoniti vilii vyavilawiriti wawagambiriti wantu ntambu yakaponiti muntu ulii.
But having been informed by the spectators, in what manner the demoniac delivered,
37 Wantu woseri wenikaya wa lushi lwa Gerasi wamgambiriti Yesu kawuki, toziya waweriti na lyoga nentu. Su Yesu kakwena mumtumbwi na kuwuka.
all the people of the country of the Gadarenes, entreated him to leave them; for they were struck with terror. Accordingly, he re-entered the bark, and returned.
38 Muntu yawamuusiyiti washamshera kamluwa Yesu pakamgambira, “Nfira kugenda na gwenga.” Kumbiti Yesu kamjimira ndiri wagendi pamuhera, su kamgambiriti,
Now, the man out of whom the demons were gone, entreated his permission to attend him. But Jesus dismissed him, saying,
39 “Guwuyi ukaya na katakuli shilii ntambu Mlungu shakakutendiriti.” Su muntu uliya kagenditi kulushi na kutakula ntambu Yesu shakamtendiriti.
Return home, and relate what great things God has done for you. Then he departed, and published through all the city, what great things Jesus had done for him.
40 Yesu pakawuyiti uwega umonga wa litanda, wantu wamshemiriti toziya waweriti wankumuhepelera.
Jesus, at his return, was welcomed by the crowd, who were all waiting for him.
41 Pala kiza muntu yawamshema Yairu, kaweriti mkulu gwa numba ya Mlungu. Kasuntama palongolu pa magulu ga Yesu na kumhiga pakamgambira wagendi ukaya kwakuwi,
Meantime, a man named Jairus, came, a ruler of the synagogue, who, throwing himself at the feet of Jesus, besought him to come into his house;
42 toziya kaweriti na nafunda yumu hera, yakaweriti na mivinja lilongu na miwili su kaweriti kankulwala tashitashi. Yesu pakaweriti kankugendagenda, wantu wambabanika wega zoseri,
for he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, who was dying. As Jesus went along, the people crowded him;
43 mngati mwawu kuweriti na mdala yakalwaliti kusuma mwazi mivinja lilongu na miwili, tembera katumiyiti ulunda wakuwi woseri kwa waganga kumbiti wamponiziya ndiri.
and a woman, who had been twelve years afflicted with an issue of blood, and had consumed all her living upon physicians, none of whom could cure her,
44 Mdala ayu kamfwatiti Yesu kumbeli mulipinga lilii na kashinkuriti lusepi lwa nguwu ya Yesu, su palaa palii kusuma mwazi kwoya.
coming behind, touched the tuft of his mantle; upon which her issue was stopped.
45 Yesu kakosiya, “Gaa kanshinkuliti?” Kila muntu kalemiti na Peteru katakuliti, “Mtuwa, lipinga lya wantu likutindiriti na kukubabanika.”
Then Jesus said, Who touched me? When every body denied it, Peter, and those with him, answered, Master, the multitude throng and press you, and do you say, Who touched me?
46 Kumbiti Yesu kalonga, “Nuvimana kwana muntu kanshinkula, mana nuvimana makakala ga kuponiziya gantawa.”
Jesus replied, Some person has touched me; for I am sensible that my power was just now exerted.
47 Mdala ulii pakawoniti kaweza ndiri kulififa, su kiza kwa kutetema na kusuntama palongolu pa magulu ga Yesu. Kaweriti kulongolu kwa kila muntu, kamgambiriti ntambu yakamshikuliti na ntambu yakaponiti kamkam hera.
Then the woman perceiving that she was discovered, came trembling, and having thrown herself prostrate, declared to him, before all the people, why she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed:
48 Yesu kamgambira mdala ulii, “Nafunda gwangu, njimiru yaku ikuponiziya. Gugendi kwa ponga.”
and he said to her, Daughter, take courage, your faith has cured you, go in peace.
49 Yesu pakaweriti kankali kankuyowera hangu, mjumbi kiza kulawa kunumba ya Yairu. Kamgambiriti Yairu, “Nafunda gwaku kahowa, nagumgaziya hera Mfunda.”
While he was yet speaking, one came from the house of the director of the synagogue, who said, your daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher.
50 Kumbiti Yesu pakapikaniriti aga, kamgambira Yairu, “Nagwana lyoga, gujimiri hera hakaponi.”
Jesus, hearing this, said to Jairus, Fear not; only believe, and she shall be well.
51 Pakasokiti pakaya, kabera muntu yoseri kwingira mnumba, ira Peteru na Yohani na Yakobu na tati na mawu gwa mwana yakahowiti.
Being come to the house, he allowed no person to enter with him, except Peter, and John, and James, and the maid's father and mother.
52 Kila muntu kaweriti kankulira na kudaya toziya ya nafunda ulii. Yesu kawagambira, “Namlira! Mwana kahowa ndiri ira kagonja hera.”
And all wept, and lamented her. But he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but asleep.
53 Wantu woseri wamseka, toziya wavimaniti mwana kahowiti.
And they derided him, knowing that she was dead.
54 Kumbiti Yesu kambata liwoku na kumshema, “Mwana gwangu gwimuki!”
But he, having made them all retire, took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maiden, arise.
55 Ukomu wakuwi umuwuyira, palaa palii kimuka, su Yesu kawagambiriti mawu na tati gwakuwi wamupi shintu shakuliya.
And her spirit returned, and she arose immediately, and he commanded to give her food.
56 Mawu na tati gwakuwi walikangashiti, kumbiti Yesu kawagambira nawamgambira muntu galii gagatendikiti.
And her parents were astonished, but he charged them not to mention to any person what had happened.
