1 Shisoweru Shiwagira ashi sha Yesu Kristu, Mwana gwa Mlungu.
The beginning of the Good News of Yeshua the Messiah, the Son of God.
2 Yankuyanja gambira Isaya mbuyi gwa Mlungu ntambu yakalembiti, “Mlungu kalongiti, ‘Guloli numtuma ntumintumi gwangu hakakulonguleri Hakakunywawili njira yaku.’
As it is written in the Prophets, “Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you:
3 Liziwu lya muntu lipikanika kushiwala, ‘Mumtenderi kala Mtuwa njira yakuwi, mumnyawili weri njira zyakuwi!’”
the voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make ready the way of the Lord! Make his paths straight!’”
4 Yohani kalawiriti kushiwala, kawabwelera wantu na kuwabatiza, pakawagambira, “Mleki vidoda vyenu na mbatizwi na Mlungu hakawalekiziyi vidoda vyenu.”
Yochanan came immersing in the wilderness and proclaiming the immersion of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
5 Wantu wavuwa wamgenderiti Yohani, wantu yawalawiti Yerusalemu na Yudeya, walekiti vidoda vyawatenditi na yomberi kawabatiziti mulushemba lwa Yoridani.
All the country of Judea and all those of Jerusalem went out to him. They were immersed by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.
6 Yohani kavaliti nguwu yayinyawitwi kwa mibaira ya nkanyama ngamiya, mushunu kalitawiti lugoyi lwa lukuli na shiboga shakuwi shiweriti lwashi na wanjombi.
Yochanan was clothed with camel’s hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
7 Yohani kabweriti pakalonga, “Pa neni kankwiza muntu mkulu kuliku neni. Neni nfaa ndiri ata kuyopola lugoyi lwa vilwatu vyakuwi.
He preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
8 Neni nukubatizani kwa mashi, kumbiti yomberi hakawabatizani kwa Rohu Mnanagala.”
I immersed you in water, but he will immerse you in the Holy Spirit.”
9 Mashaka galii Yesu kiziti kulawa Nazareti lushi lwa Galilaya na kabatiziwitwi na Yohani mulushemba lwa Yoridani.
In those days, Yeshua came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was immersed by Yochanan in the Jordan.
10 Pala palii Yesu pakalawiti mumashi, kawona kumpindi kwa Mlungu kuvuguka na Rohu Mnanagala kamkangalira gambira ng'unda.
Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
11 Na liziwu lilawira kumpindi kwa Mlungu, lilonga, “Gwenga gwa Mwana gwangu yanukufira, gunfiriziya.”
A voice came out of the sky, “You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
12 Pala palii Rohu Mnanagala kamlonguziyiti Yesu kushiwala.
Immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness.
13 Su kaweriti kushiwala aku mashaka malongu msheshi, pakajeresiwa na Shetani. Kalikaliti aku pamuhera na wankanyama wa kuntundu na wantumintumi wa kumpindi wamtenderiti.
He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.
14 Yohani pawamtatiriti kala mushibetubetu, Yesu kagenditi lushi lwa Galilaya, kulii kanjiti kubwera Shisoweru Shiwagira sha Mlungu,
Now after Yochanan was taken into custody, Yeshua came into Galilee, proclaiming the Good News of God’s Kingdom,
15 pakalonga, “Shipindi shiza! Ufalumi wa Mlungu wapakwegera. Mleki vidoda vyamtenda na mushijimiri Shisoweru Shiwagira!”
and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and God’s Kingdom is at hand! Repent, and believe in the Good News.”
16 Yesu kaweriti kankupita mumpeku mwa litanda lya Galilaya, kamwona Simoni na Andereya mlongu gwakuwi, womberi waweriti wankulowa wasomba.
Passing along by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew, the brother of Simon, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
17 Yesu kawagambira, “Munfati neni, hanuwafundi mwenga muweri walowa wantu.”
Yeshua said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you into fishers for men.”
18 Pala palii wazileka nyavu zyawu na wamfata.
Immediately they left their nets, and followed him.
19 Yesu pakagenditi palongolu padidini, kawawoniti Yakobu na Yohani wana wa Zebedayu walivagiti mumtumbwi wankunyawa nyavu zyawu.
Going on a little further from there, he saw Jacob the son of Zebedee, and Yochanan his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
20 Pala palii Yesu kawashema wamfati, womberi wamleka Zebedayu tati gwawu pamuhera na wantumintumi wakuwi mumtumbwi.
Immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
21 Yesu na wantumintumi wakuwi wagenditi lushi lwa Kafarinaumu, palifikiti Lishaka lya Kwoyera Yesu kagenditi munumba ya Mlungu na kanja kufunda.
They went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
22 Wantu yawampikaniriti Yesu walikangashiti nentu ntambu yakafunditi, toziya kafunditi ndiri gambira wafunda wawu wa Malagaliru ga Musa, kumbiti kafunditi gambira muntu yakawera na uwezu.
They were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Shipindi shilaa shilii kuweriti na muntu yakaweriti na washamshera Munumba ya Mlungu, yomberi kabotanga,
Immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
24 “Yesu gwa Nazareti, gwana shishi na twenga? Shagwizira gutwagamiziyi? Neni nukumana kala kuwera gwenga gwa gaa, gwenga gwa Mnanagala gwa Mlungu.”
saying, “Ha! What do we have to do with you, Yeshua, you Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God!”
25 Yesu kamkalipira shamshera ulii, “Umatu, gumwuki muntu ayu.”
Yeshua rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet, and come out of him!”
26 Shamshera kambegeziya nentu muntu ulii pakabotanga, shakapanu kamlekeziya.
The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 Wantu woseri walikangashiti nentu na wanjiti kulikosiya, “Shishi ashi? Aga mafundu ga syayi yagawera na uwezu! Muntu ayu kawera na makakala ga kuwawinga washamshera na womberi wamjimira!”
They were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him!”
28 Su visoweru vyakatenditi Yesu vipikinirika kanongola koseri mumkowa gwa Galilaya.
The report of him went out immediately everywhere into all the region of Galilee and its surrounding area.
29 Palaa palii pawalawiti Munumba ya Mlungu, womberi wagenditi pamuhera na Yakobu na Yohani mpaka ukaya kwa Simoni na Andereya.
Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with Jacob and Yochanan.
30 Pawasokiti palii, womberi wamgambiriti Yesu kuwera mikamwana gwa Simoni kapyupa kagonja mushitanda.
Now Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
31 Su Yesu kamgendera mlweri, kamkola liwoku na kumgolosiya, mawu ulii kawera mkomu na kanja kuwatelekera.
He came and took her by the hand and raised her up. The fever left her immediately, and she served them.
32 Pamihi mshenji paguzyetiti, wantu wamjegera Yesu walweli woseri na walii yawaweriti na washamshera.
At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick and those who were possessed by demons.
33 Wantu woseri wa lushi lulii wajojinikiti paluwaga lwa numba.
All the city was gathered together at the door.
34 Yesu kawaponiziyiti wantu wavuwa yawaweriti na malweri ga kila ntambu. Viraa kawawingiti washamshera, kafiriti ndiri washamshera watakuli shintu shoseri toziya waweriti wankumumana.
He healed many who were sick with various diseases and cast out many demons. He didn’t allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.
35 Shilawu yakuwi ligonugonu, Yesu kalawa kunja kwa lushi na kagenditi pahala pa gweka kumluwa Mlungu.
Early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.
36 Kumbiti Simoni na wayaguwi wagenditi kumsakula.
Simon and those who were with him searched for him.
37 Na pawamwoniti kala wamgambira, “Kila muntu kankukusakula!”
They found him and told him, “Everyone is looking for you.”
38 Kumbiti Yesu kawankula, “Tugendeni pahala pamonga pa lushi zyaziwera pakwegera, su neni nwezi kubwera aku viraa toziya ashi ndo shashinjegiti kushitenda.”
He said to them, “Let’s go elsewhere into the next towns, that I may proclaim there also, because I came out for this reason.”
39 Su yomberi kagenda Mugalilaya kwoseri pakabwera mnumba za Mlungu na kuwawinga washamshera.
He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, proclaiming and casting out demons.
40 Mungumbula yumu kamgenderiti Yesu kasuntumala na kamluwa, “Pagufira gumweni gumpungi neni.”
A leper came to him, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, “If you want to, you can make me clean.”
41 Yesu kamwonera lusungu nentu, kamkola liwoku kalonga, “Neni nfira, gupungwi.”
Being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, “I want to. Be made clean.”
42 Palaa palii Muntu ungumbula umlekeziya.
When he had said this, immediately the leprosy departed from him and he was made clean.
43 Shakapanu Yesu kambereziya muntu ulii, kamlekeziya kagendi zyakuwi
He strictly warned him and immediately sent him out,
44 pakamgambira, “Nagumgambira muntu yoseri visoweru avi, kumbiti gugendi gwakaliranguziyi kwa mtambika gwa Numba ya Mlungu na gulaviyi malaviwu kwajili ya kupungwa kwaku gambira Musa ntambu yakalagaliriti kuwera ukapitawu kwa woseri kuwera guponiziwa.”
and said to him, “See that you say nothing to anybody, but go show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.”
45 Kumbiti muntu ulii kagenda kanja kubwera visoweru vya kuponiziwa kwakuwi kwa kila yakamwona. Su Yesu kasinda kuliyonisiya mulushi lulii, yomberi kalikaliti pahala pa gweka. Pamuhera na hangu wantu waweriti wankumgendera yomberi kulawa wega zoseri.
But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to spread about the matter, so that Yeshua could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places. People came to him from everywhere.
