Luka 7
1 Nawamala onongwa zyakwe zyonti mmakutu gabhantu ahinjiye, hupapernaumu.
When Jesus had brought to a conclusion all that he had then had to say to the people, he entered Capernaum.
2 Na obhambhambo wakwe oakida, omo ali bhinu tee alipapepe nefwa, wape alimntu yagene tee.
A centurion in the Roman army had a slave whom he valued, and who was seriously ill – almost at the point of death.
3 Nahovwezye enongwa ezye Yesu, asonte zyezye agosi abhayahudi, hwamwahale hulabhe aje aponie obhombambombo wakwe.
And, hearing about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to him, with the request that he would come and save his slave’s life.
4 Bhope nabhafishile hwa Yesu, bhalabhile tee bhajile abhajiye, “Ono ombombele anongwa ezi,
When they found Jesus, they earnestly implored him to do so. “He deserves the favor from you,” they said,
5 Afanaje aligene itaifa lyetu, wape atizenjeye isinagogi.”
“For he is devoted to our nation, and himself built our synagogue for us.”
6 Basi oYesu abhalile pandwemo. Nabho nasagalihutali nenyumba, eyola oakida asontezyezye orafiki hwamwahale wabhola. 'GOSI, ogaje ahwiluvye afwanaje ane sefaa aje ewe oyinjile pansi pigalo lyane.
So Jesus went with them. But, when he was no great distance from the house, the centurion sent some friends with the message – “Do not trouble yourself, Sir; for I am unworthy to receive you under my roof.
7 Eshi ehwilolile aje sefaa nene ahwinze hwaho, lelo panga izu tu obhombambo wane abhapone.
That was why I did not even venture to come to you myself; but speak, and let my manservant be cured.
8 Afwanaje nane endi muntu nembehwelwe pansi eye ulongozi, endina sikari pansi yane, nkebholele ono bhala abhala na ono “enza” ahwenza, na obhomba mbombo, “Wane” bhomba eshi, abhomba.”
For I myself am a man under the orders of others, with soldiers under me; and if I say to one of them ‘Go,’ he goes, and to another ‘Come,’ he comes, and to my slave ‘Do this,’ he does it.”
9 OYesu namwovwa ego aswijire, wagugalushila, obngano gwagwabhinjelelaga wanyaga.” Embabhola, hata bha Israeli, sendilolile olyweteho ogosi neshe olu.
Jesus was surprised to hear these words from him; and, turning to the crowd which was following him, he said, “I tell you, nowhere in Israel have I met with such faith as this!”
10 Na bhala bhabhatumwilyu nabhahwela okhaya bhamwaga ola obhombambombo mwinza.
And, when the messengers returned to the house, they found the slave recovered.
11 Napamande hashe, abhalile hwiboma limo lyakwiwaga Naini. Asambelezye wa bhakwe bhabhenjelezenye nalwo pandwemo no bongona ogosi.
Shortly after, Jesus went to a town called Nain, his disciples and a great crowd going with him.
12 Nawafiha apalamile nolwango ogwi boma eye, omntu yafyiye au anyetulwe, na mwana weka hwa nyina wakwe. Yali fwele, na mabungano wabhantu afume hwiboma bhali pandwemo nawo.
Just as he approached the gate of the town, there was a dead man being carried out for burial – an only son, and his mother was a widow. A large number of the people of the town were with her.
13 GOSI nawalola aloleye husajile wabhala, “Laha lile.”
When he saw her, the Master was moved with compassion for her, and he said to her, “Do not weep.”
14 Wasojela walipalamasya ijeneza bhala bhabanyetuye bhahemeleye, wayanga sahala ehubhala “imelela”
Then he went up and touched the bier, and the bearers stopped; and Jesus said, “Young man, I am speaking to you – Rise!”
15 Ola ofwe wemelela. Wakhala wanda aje wapela onyina wakwe.
The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus restored him to his mother.
16 Owoga wabhakhata wonti. Bhasomba ONGOLOBHE bhayanga okuwa “OGOSI afumiye hwilite” na “ONGOLOBHE abhenyizye abhantu bhakwe”
Everyone was awe-struck and began praising God. “A great prophet has arisen among us,” they said. “God has visited his people.”
17 Enogwa zyakwe ezi zyazyambanile huyudea hwonti na ensi zyonti zyazili mshe mshe.
And this story about Jesus spread all through Judea, and in the neighboring countries as well.
18 Asambelezyewa abha Yohana bhaletela enogwa zyego gonti.
All these events were reported to John by his disciples.
19 Esho oYohana wabhakwizya bhabhele asombeleziwa bhakwe wabhasondelezya hwa Yesu abhozye “Awe wewe ola yayenza, au timwenyelezyaje owenje?
So he summoned two of them, and sent them to the Master to ask – “Are you ‘the coming one,’ or are we to look for someone else?”
20 Wape nabhafiha hwamwahale bhayanjile, “oYohana ya hwozya atisondezyezye hwiliwe aganjile aje awe, 'Wewe ola yahwenza au timwenyelezyaje owenje?”
When these men found Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist has sent us to you to ask – Are you ‘the coming one,’ or are we to look for somebody else?”
21 Ne sala yeyo abhaponizye abhinji abhinu bhabho na efwa, eye mpepo embibhi, na avipofu abhinji bhalolile.
At that very time Jesus had cured many people of diseases, afflictions, and wicked spirits, and had given many blind people their sight.
22 Eshi nkawagalula. Wabhabhola, bhalaji mubhale oYohana ega gamgalolilena govwe. avipofu bhalola alema bhajenda, abheukoma bhapona, adinda makutu bhahwovwa, bhabhafwiye bhazyoba, apena bhalombelelwa enongwa enyinza.
So his answer to the question was, “Go and report to John what you have witnessed and heard – the blind recover their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are made clean, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life, the good news is told to the poor.
23 Wape heri omntu yeyonti yasavisiwa nane.”
And blessed is the person who finds no hindrance in me.”
24 Basi eshi asontelezewe bha Yohana na bhasogola, ahandile abhabhole amabongono enongwa ezya Yohana, “Mwafumile abhale mwipoli ahwenye yenu, isole wauyiziwa nehala?
When John’s messengers had left, Jesus, speaking to the crowds, began to say with reference to John,
25 Eshi mwafumile abhale ahwenye yenu, omntu yakwatiziwe amenda aminza? mmanye abhantu bhabhali namwenda ageu tukufu bhabhalya raha bhali mnyumba ezye shimwene.
“What did you go out into the wilderness to look at? A reed waving in the wind? If not, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in rich clothing? Why, those who are accustomed to fine clothes and luxury live in royal palaces.
26 Eshi mwafumile abhale ahwegegenu okuwa, Antele? Embabhole, na yali zaidi ya okuwa.
What then did you go to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and far more than a prophet.
27 Oyo yayo asimbiliwa, “Ega, enya ehusontelezya ojumbe wane hwitagalila elye maso gaho, yabhalenganya idala lyaho hwitagalila lyaho,
This is the man of whom scripture says – ‘I am sending my messenger ahead of you, and he will prepare your way before you.’
28 Nane embabhola, neshi bhala bhapepwe na bhashe, nomo yaligosi neshe oYohana, lelo yalidodo humwene owa NGOLOBHE GOSI ashile omwene.”
There is, I tell you, no one born of a woman who is greater than John; and yet the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”
29 Abhantu bhonti bhabhasonjezya esonga nabhahovwezye ego bhaheteshe, elyoli ya NGOLOBHE afwanaje bhoziwe. Huwoziwa uYohana.
(All the people, when they heard this, and even the tax collectors, having accepted John’s baptism, acknowledged the justice of God.
30 Lelo abhafarisayo na bhana sheria bhali khene isunde elya NGOLOBHEhwabhene afwanaje sebhohoziwe nomwene.
But the Pharisees and the students of the Law, having rejected John’s baptism, frustrated God’s purpose in regard to them.)
31 OGOSI wayanga embalenganisye neye abhantu abheshikho eshi? bhape bhalengene neyenu?
“To what then,” Jesus continued, “should I compare the people of the present generation? What are they like?
32 Bhalengene nabhana bhakheye pasokoni, na kwizanye nabhayanga, 'tabhakhomeye efilimbi antele semwahanjile, tazondile antele semwalilile.'
They are like some little children who are sitting in the marketplace and calling out to one another – ‘We have played the flute for you, but you have not danced; We have wailed, but you have not wept!’
33 Afwanaje oYohana owahozye ahenzele salya ibumnda wala samwela divai, namwa myanga myiga “Ano pepo obhibhi.
For now that John the Baptist has come, not eating bread or drinking wine, you are saying ‘He has a demon in him’;
34 Omwana owa Adamu ayenzile alya na mwele, namwe myanga, enye, lyavi ono, na mwezi owe divai, rafiki wabho asonjezya!
and now that the Son of Man has come, eating and drinking, you are saying ‘Here is a glutton and a wine-drinker, a friend of tax collectors and outcasts.’
35 Neshinshi ebhoneshe aje elinelyoli hwabhana bhakwe bhonti.”
And yet wisdom is vindicated by all her children.”
36 Omntu omo owa mafarisayo amwanile alye eshalye hwamwene. Winjila mnyumba yakwe ofarisayo, wakhala pashalye.
One of the Pharisees asked Jesus to dine with him, so Jesus went to his house and took his place at the table.
37 Enya oshe omo owiboma lila wali wemabhibhi. Nazyoyile enongwa aje akheye pashalye panyumba eyola ofarisayo, aletile insupa marimari yeli nemaruhamu.
Just then a woman, who was an outcast in the town, having heard that Jesus was eating in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster jar of perfume,
38 Wemelela hwisalo papepe na manama gakwe nawalila. Wanda hulagazizye mmagaga gakwe amansozi gakwe, na syomwole ni sisi elyamwitwe lyakwe, na humyante myante mmagaya gwakwe, na pashe gala amaruhamu.
and placed herself behind Jesus, near his feet, weeping. Then she began to make his feet wet with her tears, and she dried them with the hair of her head, repeatedly kissing his feet and anointing them with the perfume.
39 Basi ola ofarisayo yamwanile nawolola shila wanyanga humwoyo gwakwe, omntu ono khashile alikuwe, “Handamenye oshe ono yahupalamasyasya, wenu wape aliwelewele yaje wemabhibhi.
When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw this, he said to himself, “Had this man been ‘the prophet,’ he would have known who, and what sort of woman, this is who is touching him, and that she is an outcast.”
40 OYesu wagamla wabhozya, “Simoni endine nongwa mbahubhole. “Wayanga” “sambilizi yanga!”
But, addressing him, Jesus said, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” “Pray do so, teacher,” Simon answered; and Jesus began,
41 Wayanga “Omntu omo yakhopezya alinabhe madeni bhabhele, omo adagaya ehela miatano nowabhele amsini.
“There were two people who were in debt to a moneylender; one owed five hundred silver coins, and the other fifty.
42 Bhape nabhali sebhalinahahuripe, abhasajiye wonti. bhabhele neshe bhabhele yo nanu yayihugana tee?
As they were unable to pay, he forgave them both. Which of them, do you think, will love him the more?”
43 Simoni wagalula wayanga, “Amenyeje yayola yasajiye enyinji.” Wabhola oyamliye lyoli.”
“I suppose,” answered Simon, “it will be the man to whom he forgave the greater debt.” “You are right,” said Jesus,
44 Wagarushila ola oshe wabhola Simoni, “Walota oshe. Ono nahinjiye mnyumba yaho. Sohampiye amenze mmagagagane, eshi ono andayazyezye amansozi mmagagagane, na syomwole nisisi elya mwitwe lyakwe.
and then, turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I came into your house – you gave me no water for my feet, but she has made my feet wet with her tears and dried them with her hair.
45 Awe sohanjayiye, lelo ono, awande pana hinjiye sagaleshile njayile tee mmagaga gane.
You did not give me one kiss, but she, from the moment I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 Sagapashile mwitwe lyane amafuta, eshi ono ampeshe amagaga gane amaruhamu.
You did not anoint even my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with perfume.
47 Afwanaje nago, ehubhozya asajiye embibhi zyekwe zyazyalinjili, afwanaje asongwezye tee. Lelo yasajilya hasheoyo asongwelye hashe.”
So I tell you, her great love shows that her sins, many as they are, have been pardoned. One who is pardoned little loves little.”
48 Eshi abholele oshe, “Osajilye embibhi zyaho zyonti”
Then he said to the woman, “Your sins have been pardoned.”
49 Esho bhala bhabhakheye pandwemo nawo bhahandile ayanje humoyo gabho wenu ono yasajilo embibhi?”
The other guests began to say to one another, “Who is this man who even pardons sins?”
50 Wabhola ola oshe, “Olweteho lyaho lumwauye. Bhalaga hulweteho lwaho”
But Jesus said to the woman, “Your faith has delivered you; go, and peace be with you.”
