Luka 11
1 Yabha nali humo humo alabhaga na wamala, omo wasambelezewa bhakwe abhole, “GOSI, umanyizye ate apute neshe shila oYohana shabha manyizizya asambelezewa bhakwe.'
And it came to pass, in His being in a certain place praying, as He ceased, a certain one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as also John taught his disciples.”
2 Wabhabhola na mputa, yangaji, semeni, 'Baba, hwetu woli mwanya. Itawa lyaho lisaiwaje. Umwene waho wenze, amapenzi gaho gatimizi waje, epa padunia neshe ohwo amwanya.
And He said to them, “When you may pray, say: Our Father who is in the heavens, hallowed be Your Name; Your kingdom come, Your will come to pass, as in Heaven also on earth;
3 Otipele isiku hwi siku eriziki yetu.
be giving us daily our appointed bread;
4 Otisajile embibhi zyetu, afwanaje nate ate tibhasajira shila yativisya. Na ogaje ati ponye mmalabha.” (lelo otaule nalo obhibhi)
and forgive us our sins, for we also ourselves forgive everyone indebted to us; and may You not bring us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil [one].”
5 Wabhabhola, “Wenu hwilimwe yali no rafiki, wabhalila nosiku, owe manane na hubhole, Rafiki wane hopele amabumnda gatatu.
And He said to them, “Who of you will have a friend, and will go on to him at midnight, and may say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves,
6 Afwanaje orafiki wane afishile hwiline afamile msafari, nane sendi nahantu eshabheshe hwitagalila lyakwe.'
seeing a friend of mine came out of the way to me, and I have not what I will set before him,
7 Na ola owa mhati galula ayanje, uganjenja zye, olyango engaliye nate tiganile nashitala ane na bhana bhane, sebwezizya abhoshe aje epele.
and he from within answering may say, Do not give me trouble, the door has already been shut, and my children are with me in the bed, I am not able, having risen, to give to you.
8 Embabhale yaje, ata nkashile bhoha apele afwanaje rafiki wakwe, lele shila shasaleha hulabhe, bhaso gale na hupele, kadli eyehaja yakwe.
I say to you, even if he will not give to him, having risen, because of his being his friend, yet because of his persistence, having risen, he will give him as many as he needs;
9 Nane embabhola, Labhaji, mbhapewe; anzaji, namwe mbhalole, ganezyaje, nemwa mbhahwalwe.
and I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you;
10 Afwanaje shila yalabha apewa, wape ya hwanza alola, wape yadaliha ahwaulwa.
for everyone who is asking receives; and he who is seeking finds; and to him who is knocking it will be opened.
11 Eshi wenu hwalimwe, yali Yise wenyuyaje omwana wukwe, nkalabhe ibumnda ahupela iwe
And of which of you—the father—[if] the son will ask [for] a loaf, will present to him a stone? And [if] a fish, instead of a fish, will present to him a serpent?
12 au samaki badala ya samaki ahupela enzoha?
And [if] he may ask [for] an egg, will present to him a scorpion?
13 Eshi, ekiwa amwe mwemli bhibhi mmenye abhapele abhana bhenyu evintu evinza, eshi oBaba warimwanya sabhazide abhapele opepo ozelu bhala bhabhalabha?”
If, then, you, being evil, have known to be giving good gifts to your children, how much more will the Father who is from Heaven give the Holy Spirit to those asking Him!”
14 Wape ali, ahwefwa ipepo, ibubu. lyabha ipepo nalyepa, ola obubu wayanga, mabongano bhaswiga.
And He was casting forth a demon, and it was mute, and it came to pass, the demon having gone forth, the mute man spoke, and the multitudes wondered,
15 Bhamo bhayanga, ahwefwa pepo, Beelzebul, gosi we pepo.
and certain of them said, “By Beelzebul, ruler of the demons, He casts forth the demons”;
16 Bhamo bhalenga bhamwanza ishala yefuma amwanya.
and others, tempting, were asking [for] a sign out of Heaven from Him.
17 Wape azimenye esebho zyabho, wabhabhola, shila umwene wauvisenye wowo kwa wowo, ubhombeha sheukwa, nekhaya juu yekhaya egwa.
And He, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom having been divided against itself is desolated; and house against house falls;
18 Eshi nkebhe Oshetani avisenye juu ye nafsi yakwe, umwene wakwa ubhahwemelele wele, afanaje amwe mjile ane ehwefwa mapepo hwa Belzebuli.
and if Satan was also divided against himself, how will his kingdom be made to stand? For you say by Beelzebul is My casting forth the demons,
19 Eshi nkashile ane ehwefwa pepo Belzebuli, je abhana bhenu, mbhabhefwe hwananu, afwanaje, ebho bhabhayibhalonga.
but if I, by Beelzebul, cast forth the demons—your sons, by whom do they cast forth? Because of this they will be your judges;
20 Lelo, nkashele ane efumya amapepo hushidole sha Ngolobhe, eshu umwene owa Ngolobhe ubhenzeye.
but if by the finger of God I cast forth the demons, then the Kingdom of God came unaware on you.
21 Omntu yali namaha ahwipinyile endoso zyakwe, nalinda ekhaya yakwe, evintu evyakwa vilishinza.
When the strong man may keep his hall armed, his goods are in peace;
22 Lelo omntu yali namaha ashile omwahale na bhahubhalile nahumene, na hufyole endoso zyakwe zyasobheye, na gabhanye amateka gakwe.
but when the stronger than he, having come on [him], may overcome him, he takes away his whole armor in which he had trusted, and he distributes his spoils;
23 Omntu ambaye salipandwemo nane, oyo alishinyume nane na omntu yasabhonganya pandwemo nane anyapanya.
he who is not with Me is against Me, and he who is not gathering with Me scatters.
24 Opepo ochafu nafuma hwamntu, ashililila pasepali menze. Ahwanza apatoye sapalela, ayanga.
When the unclean spirit may go forth from the man, it walks through waterless places seeking rest, and not finding, it says, I will return to my house from where I came forth;
25 Embayiwelele enyumba yane mwefumele.
and having come, it finds [it] swept and adorned;
26 Hata nafiha nkawalola eyoselye na yipambe esho abhala ayeje pepe abhamwabho saba bhali bhabhibhi ashile elyahale lyelyo, ginjila na khale omwo, omntu oyo ehali yakwe eya humalisholo ebhambibhi shile eyahwande.
then it goes, and takes to it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and having entered, they dwell there, and the last of that man becomes worse than the first.”
27 Yabha nawayanga amazu ego, oshe om katika obongano akholile hwizu lyakwe, wabhola heri evyanda vyavyapepe, na mabhele gohoshile.
And it came to pass, in His saying these things, a certain woman having lifted up the voice out of the multitude, said to Him, “Blessed the womb that carried You, and the breasts that You sucked!”
28 Lelo omwahale ayanjile, nafu, aheli bhahwovwa izu elya Ngolobhe na likhate.
And He said, “Indeed, rather, blessed those hearing the word of God, and keeping [it]!”
29 Na mabongano nabhali bhahubhonganila, ahandile ayanje, eshikholo eshi shikholo eshibhibhi. Shihwanza ishala, wala seshayipewa ishara ila ishara eya Yona.
And the multitudes crowding together on Him, He began to say, “This generation is evil, it seeks after a sign, and a sign will not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet,
30 Eshi, nkasile shila o Yona shari ishara hwa bhaninawi, shesho shayibha omwana owa Adamu hushikholo eshi.
for as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also will the Son of Man be to this generation.
31 Omalkia owa hukusini ayisogola isiku ilyalongwe pandwemo na bhantu abheshikholo eshi wape aibhalonga aje mnamakosa afatanaje omwahale ahenzele afume ncha ezye ensi ayovwe ehekimu eya Solomoni, na epa pali o gosi ashera Osolomoni.
A queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and will condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, [One] greater than Solomon [is] here!
32 Abhantu Bhaninawi bhayemelela isiku elya longwe pandwemo nesikholo eshi bhape bhayishilongu aje shikosile afwanaje abhahale bhasajilwe hundomelelo ezya Yona, nepa pali ogosi ashile o Yona.
Men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, because they converted at the proclamation of Jonah; and behold, [One] greater than Jonah [is] here!
33 Nomo omntu yahwasya okhozyo nabhesha pa pafisishe au pansi pameza, eshi ibhehwa pamwanya eye meza, ili bhabhahwinjila bhalolaje okhozyo.
And no one having lighted a lamp, puts [it] in a secret place, nor under the measure, but on the lampstand, that those coming in may behold the light.
34 Okhozyo olwebele liso. Eshi iliso lyaho nkalibhe shinza, obele gwao gwonti gubhabhelukhozyo. Lelo nkalibhe libhibhi obele gwaho gubhabhe nkisi.
The lamp of the body is the eye, when then your eye may be simple, your whole body is also lightened; and when it may be evil, your body is also darkened;
35 Enya eshi olukhozyo lwalimhati yaho osije ogabha nkisi.
take heed, then, lest the light that [is] in you is darkness;
36 Eshi nkashile okhozyo guzyambanile mubele gwaho gwonti, wala segunesehemu eye nkisi, esho obele gwaho gwonti gubhabhe nokhozyo, nkashile lula okhozyo nkaukhozye obele gwaho gwonti gubhabhe no mwanga.”
if then your whole body is lightened, not having any part darkened, the whole will be lightened, as when the lamp by the brightness may give you light.”
37 Nali ayanga, o Falisayo omo akwizizye abhale hwamwahale alye ehsalye, winjila, wakhala pa shalye.
And in [His] speaking, a certain Pharisee was asking Him that He might dine with him, and having gone in, He reclined,
38 Farisayo oyo nalolile, aswijile afwanaje saganawile sasele alye.
and the Pharisee having seen, wondered that He did not first immerse Himself before the early meal.
39 Ogosi wabhola, “Amwe mwafalisayo mhwozya eshikombo ne sahani wonze lelo mhati yenyu mmemile afyole no ubhibhi.
And the LORD said to him, “Now you, the Pharisees, make the outside of the cup and of the plate clean, but your inward part is full of robbery and wickedness.
40 Amwe mwalema yabhombile evya hwonza seyoyo yabhombile evya mhati antele?
Unthinking [ones]! Did He who made the outside not also make the inside?
41 Ulo fumyaji esadaka vila evya mhati ne enya, vyonti vibhovinza hwilimwe.
But what you have given [as] alms, and behold, all things are clean to you.
42 Lelo ole wenyu Mwafarisayo, afwatanaje mfumia ezaka za mnanaa ne zebwa na shila vilembe na ohu mleshile amamba age adili na lugane olya Ngolobhe. Mwanziwaga abhombe ego agahwande bla agalishe ego agabhele.
But woe to you, the Pharisees, because you tithe the mint, and the rue, and every herb, and you pass by the judgment and the love of God; these things [you] should do, and those not to be neglecting.
43 Ole wenyu Mwafarisayo, afwanaje msongwa akhale hwitagalila elye mabhanza na lamhane msokoni.
Woe to you, the Pharisees, because you love the first seats in the synagogues and the salutations in the marketplaces.
44 Ole wenyu, afwanaje mlengene na makabuli gasegabhone amago abhantu nabhashilla juu yakwe sebhali nehabari nago.”
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because you are as the unseen tombs, and the men walking above have not known.”
45 Omntu omo katika abhanasheria wagalula, wabhalola sambelezi, ayanje esho otilajiye ate natee.
And one of the lawyers answering, says to Him, “Teacher, saying these things, You also insult us”;
46 Wayanga, namwe mbhanasheria, ole wenyu afwanaje mbhatweha abhantu amazigo gasega nyeruha wala amwe bhenyewe semgapalamasya amazigo ego hata huvidole vyenyu shimo.
and He said, “And to you, the lawyers, woe! Because you burden men with burdens [too] grievous to bear, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.
47 Ole wenyu afwanaje mzenga maziala aga kuwa na ayise bhenyu afwanaje bhabhagojile.
Woe to you, because you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
48 Eshi mshuhudila na zyetishe embombo ezya yise bhenyu, afwanaje bhahale bhabhagojile namwe mbhazenjela amaziala.
Then you testify, and are well pleased with the works of your fathers, because they indeed killed them, and you build their tombs;
49 Na afwanaje esho ehekima eya Ngolobhe ihayanjila, enya, embasontezye hwabhahale akuwa na tumwa, bhape bhayibhagoga bhamo na bhutanje.
because of this also the wisdom of God said: I will send to them prophets, and apostles, and some of them they will kill and persecute,
50 Ili hupapwa ene liwahwenze idanda elya kuwa wonti, yehitishe afume azengwe omsingi ogwensi.
that the blood of all the prophets, that is being poured forth from the foundation of the world, may be required from this generation—
51 Afume idanda elya Abeli hata idanda elya Zakaria, yagongwilye kati ya pampto eya pashibhanza. Nantele embabhola eyaje ebhahwanzye humpapo ene.
from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zacharias, who perished between the altar and the house; yes, I say to you, it will be required from this generation.
52 Ole wenyu amwe mbhana sheria afwanaje muwefwizye efukuro eye marifai mwemwe semwahinji yei nabhala bhabhahinjilaga mbhazubhiye.”
Woe to you, the lawyers, because you took away the key of the knowledge; you yourselves did not enter; and you hindered those coming in.”
53 Nawafuma omwo asimbi na Mafalisayo bhandile husonje shibhibhi na husinjizye humaswali gaminji.
And in His speaking these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began fearfully to urge and to press Him to speak about many things,
54 Bhahuzijila ili bhapata enongwa zya zifuma mwilumu lyakwe.
laying wait for Him, and seeking to catch something out of His mouth, that they might accuse Him.
