< Maluko 1 >
1 Ugu wandilo uwanlumbilile izya Yesu uKilisiti.
Beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;
2 Nishi pihasi mbilwe nukuwa Isaya, “Enya, ituma umuntu wani witazi lwaho, uumo uwandale idala lwaho.
even as it is written in the prophet Isaiah, Behold, I am sending my messenger before your face to prepare your way.
3 Sauti ya muntu uwakhola wipoli, “Kamiliswaji idala lwa Bwana; zigolosuaji amdala gakwe.”
The voice of one crying aloud. In the desert make ready a road for the Lord. Make his paths straight.
4 U Yohana ahinza, ahanzhele awonzwa wipoli nalumbelele ulwozwo ulwawiyiswe sameshe imbivhi.
In the desert came Johnwho baptized, and preached a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
5 Inzi yunti iya Yudaa na wantu bhudi wa Yelusalemu bhala yawamwene bhanga bhawozewa numwene isoho yo ndani bhasangamaga imbi zyao.
and all the land of Judea, and all the people of Jerusalem, kept going out to him, and were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.
6 U Yohana ahali akwata amenda gimoya gingamiya nukanda ngui nkwembe musana gwakwe, alwanga ikhopha nu woonshi wa wipoli.
And Johnwas clothed with camel’s hair, and he had a leather girdle round his loins, and he ate locusts, and "honey of the wood."
7 Alumhelelaga nayaje, “Ajwele omo aweza palene ya nikhonsana ani sayaiwezwa, sasga imbajile awishe pansi nawaule inyao zya malato gakwe.
He made proclamation. "There is One mightier than I coming after me, and I am not worthy to stoop down and unfasten his sandal strap;
8 Anle ihabhabhozyaga humhenze, lelo umwene aibhozya humheze huhala Uzelu Umuiza.”
I have baptized you in water, but he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit."
9 Lihafumila isikulimo insiku izyo huje uYesu ahizele afume hu Nazareti ya wiGalilaya, ahozewa nu Yohana wisoho Yorodani,
It was at that time that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by Johnin the Jordan;
10 Epou uYesu pauha afumemeze, ahalola imwanya awihiha pamwanya pa mwene nishi injibha.
and as soon as he rose from the water he saw the sky cleft asunder, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him,
11 Isauti ihafuma amwanya, “Awe uli Mwana Wani. Niphendeziwe sana nawe.”
and a voice from the sky. "Thou art my Son, my beloved; in thee is my delight."
12 Shisho uhala alazima hwa awale wipoli.
Then the Spirit drove him at once into the desert,
13 Ali wipoli insiku amarogo ganhi, shajelwa nuSetano. Hali pandwemo na makhanu gamwipoli, abhandumi bhambela.
and he remained in the desert for forty days, tempted by Satan; and he was among the wild beasts, but the angels were ministering to him.
14 Ahishi afume Yohana akhatwe, Yesu ahiza hu Galilaya alumbelila inongwa zya Ngulubhi,
After Johnhad been thrown into prison Jesus came into Galilee preaching the gospel of God.
15 ahayanga, “Abhalilo na utawala wa Ngulubhi mbhelile lambi nahwenteshe nishi alumbhelele”.
"The time is now come," he said, "and the kingdom of God is near! Repent and believe the gospel."
16 Ashizanya mushenje mushejenje ya Galilaya, halola uSimoni nu Andeleya uholowakwe usimoni bhaponya inyavu zwao mu nsumbi, pipo bhahali bhabhalobha.
And as he was passing along by the sea of Galilee he saw Simon and Andrew, Simon’s brother, casting their net into the sea, for they were fishermen;
17 U Yesu ahabhabhuli, “Ajeiza, nhizaji, dangaji izabhambeshe walolombe samantu.”
so Jesus said to them, "Come after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men."
18 Nahazileha inyavu zyao na hunfwate.
At once they left their nets and followed him.
19 U Yesu pajendanga apatali hashe, ahabola u Yakobo umwana wa Zebedayo na Yohana uholo wakwe; bhali mwitori bhalinganya lyavu.
As he went a little farther on he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and Johnhis brother, who also were in their boat mending the nets.
20 Abhakuga bhope bhafuta bhahaleha inyise wao za Zebedayo wahaleha mhati mwitori natumishi abhanji abhakondilwe, wahafuta.
Straightway he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants and went after him.
21 Pa bhahafiha Kaperinaumu, isiku ku Lwatuye, uYesu ahinjila aputile nawamanyizye.
So they came to Capernaum, and as soon as the Sabbath Day came he went into the synagogue and began to teach.
22 Bhaswiga asunde wakwe, alingane aje asundaga nishi umntu ulwali ni amuli nikama bhabhamanyizya na abhabhasimba.
They were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them with authority, not like the Scribes.
23 Npepo umunda gwogwa ahali umuntu wahijila paputilepao ali ni pepo ichafu, naakholaihalo,
And at that very moment, there in their synagogue, a man in the grip of an unclean spirit shrieked out.
24 ayanga, “Tuli na henu ahabhombe nawe, uYesu wa Nazaleti? Uyinzile watwangamizye? Imenye uli winanu. Awe uuli mwaushe ulihovhe umwana wa Ngulubhi!”
"What business have you with us, you Jesus of Nazareth? Are you come to destroy us? I know you who you are, the Holy One of God."
25 U Yesu aidamila ipepo nayanje, “Bhuma na hufume muhati!”
But Jesus rebuked him, saying. "Be quit! Come out of him."
26 Na iloho ibhibhi vhiihagwisya paka pazhi nafume wa mwene lwulwo shalila wisa utisana ya pamwanya.
So the unclean spirit, after tearing him, came out of him with a loud cry;
27 Awantu bhunti wa haswingaa, bhahabhuzanya na shila muntu, “Ili lwenu? Izinsundo phaa ilwali amuli? Hata ipepo azyamlila ipepo zyope zimwiente haa!”
and every one was amazed so that they began questioning among themselves. "What does this mean? A new teaching with authority? He lays commands even upon unclean spirits and they obey him."
28 Inongwa afumilane numwene zyahenela uwakati bhobho mhati yikowa Galilaya.
And at once his fame spread everywhere through that part of Galilee.
29 Ishi lelo bada yafume huzi panyi poto, bhahinjila khaya wa Simoni nu uAndeleya bhali nu Yakobo nu Yohana.
On leaving the synagogue they went at once with Jamesand Johnto the house of Simon and Andrew.
30 Ishi ukhoyi wakwe uSimoni ali agonile bhinu alinihoma, mala yiyo bhahabhula uYesu ihali zyakwe.
Now Simon’s mother-in-law lay sick of fever, and without delay they told him about her.
31 Bhisho aheza, ahakata ukhata ukhono, na ubhisye humwanya; homa ihaleha wa mwene, handa wabhele.
So he came and took her hand and raised her up. The fever left her at once, and she began to wait upon them.
32 Ulwebhe labhobho isanyapa liswile, bhaletelawa mwene abhali wa winu amabhasanyishilwe ni pepo.
At evening when the sun had set, people came and brought to him all the sick and demon-possessed,
33 Ikaya yundi ibhongana pandwimo mundwango.
and the whole town was gathered at the door.
34 Ahabhonwa bhundhi abhali bhanwinzeele ibhungo zinyinji, nakemele ipepo haga lehanga ipepo huje zhi yangaje pipo zwamenye.
He cured many who were ill with various diseases, and drove out many demons. But he did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who he was.
35 Abhuha na sha pwii sana, wali shahuli siku habhala pasa pabhoneha alabhanga uhwo.
In the morning he rose a great while before day and went out to a desert place, and there prayed.
36 U Simoni na bhunti bhala abhalibhunthi bhahaza humwaze.
And Simon and his companions hunted him up,
37 Bhahumwaga handa bhule, “Bhunti bha huwanza”
and told him, "Every one is looking for you."
38 Abhabhula, “Salitubhale apanji nnzi yunti izyungula ili bhope oubho indumbilile. Shashisho inzile ipa.”
"Let us go away," he answered, "to the neighboring country towns, that I may preach there, too; because for that purpose I came forth."
39 Ahala ajenda mugali ya mwunti, abha azyugula mnyipoto zyabho mwunti nakemele vhepele ipepo.
So he went throughout Galilee, preaching in the synagogues and driving out demons.
40 Uwikoma ahezawamwene. Ali ahulamba; ahafugamila amafugamo agabhala, “Khashele uwanza ugawezaa mbeshe mwinza.”
One day a leper cane to him and besought him as he knelt down to him, saying, "If you choose, you are able to cleanse me."
41 Abuwagwa ni phana uYesu hagolozya ukhono gwakwe nahukhate habhala, “Nina. Uwe safi.”
Jesus, moved with compassion, put out his hand and touched him, saying, "I do choose, be clean!"
42 Hashe lwene ukoma bhuhamwepa, ahabhasa safi.
The leprosy at once left him, and he was made clean.
43 U Yesu ahasunda hukhali shilaga shaulilo, ahabhola,
Jesus immediately sent him away, charging him sternly and saying.
44 “Uhakiswaje saga unyama muntu yaya hyanyunti, lelo shilaga, uwibhonesye wa puti, natowe dhabihu hunoyaje u Mose alajizye shasha awi yozye isha manyishe wane.”
"See you say nothing to any one; but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your purification what Moses commanded for a testimony to them."
45 Lelo abhala aubhula kila muntu na wenezye ineno sana hata uYesu haga ayendela abhale humujini huwa bhuushe. Hivho pa falanga nabhantu abha heza wamwene abha bhafume wunti.
But he went out and began to tell every one and to publish it broadcast, so that Jesus could no longer enter any town openly; but he had to remain outside in lonely places, and people kept coming to him from every quarter.
