< Maluko 5 >

1 Bhabhiza upande uwinje uwinsumbi ukowa ungwa hu Gelasi
They came to the other side of the sea – the region of the Gerasenes;
2 Gafula uwakati uYesu afumaga hunzhi iyituli, umuntu uwipepi ichafu anhiza wa mwene afume wazili inghugwa.
and, as soon as Jesus had got out of the boat, he met a man coming out of the tombs, who was under the power of a foul spirit,
3 Muntu uyo akhalaga wazili inghughwa. Numo untu uwa zigaga zaidi, numo hata hu manyololo.
and who made his home in the tombs. No one had ever been able to secure him, even with a chain;
4 Apinyilwe ahabhalilo ahinji apinyilwe namanyololo. Alikata minyololo naphingo adadulaga ipbingo na gamanyololo gambuduhaga. Na numo uwanga nikhone nahu mene.
for, though he had many times been left secured with fetters and chains, he had snapped the chains and broken the fetters to pieces, and no one could master him.
5 Usiku nusanya shali hu ngungwa na huagamba, alilaga na wivhale na mawe amakhali.
Night and day alike, he was continually shrieking in the tombs and among the hills, and cutting himself with stones.
6 Pahalola uYesu litali, anyililile wa mwene naundame witazi wa mwene.
Catching sight of Jesus from a distance, he ran and bowed to the ground before him,
7 Ahalila usauti igozi, “Uwaza ibhombele yenu, uYesu, Umwana wa Ngulubhi uwali Humwanya sana? Ihuwiniha wa Ngulubhi yuyo, ungandedavhwe.”
shrieking out in a loud voice, “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? For God’s sake do not torment me!”
8 Pipo ali abholile, “Huje ufume mwa muntu bhunu, awe wipepo imbivhi.”
For Jesus had said, “Come out from the man, you foul spirit.”
9 Wope abhuzya, “Itawa lwaho wi nanu?” Wope ajibule, “Itawa lwani Legion, pipo tuli bhinji.”
And he asked him, “What is your name?” “My name,” he said, “is Legion, for there are many of us;”
10 Amwiniha sana sana angande hutwale hunzi yikowa.
and he begged Jesus again and again not to send them away out of that country.
11 Ishi ikundi igosi ilinguluvhe zywa lwanga pamwanya paha gamba,
There was a large herd of pigs close by, feeding on the hillside;
12 nabha mwiniha, bhayanga, “Tutume huguluvhe; tinjile muhati yavho.”
and the spirits begged Jesus, “Send us into the pigs so that we can take possession of them.”
13 Bhalisiwa; aroho achafu bhahafuma nawinjile muhati mungulivhi, bhape bhahanyilapanzipa gamba paka munsumbi zyabhezya afishe elufu zibhili bhatumbushila munzumbi.
Jesus gave them leave. They came out, and entered into the pigs; and the herd – about two thousand in number – rushed down the steep slope into the sea and were drowned in the sea.
14 Na bhala bhali bhaziliswa igumi bhatumbaga nafumine italifa abafumile ikhaya ni nsi pipo bhuhafwa abhale awenye ahahafumile.
Then the men who tended them ran away, and carried the news to the town, and to the country around; and the people went to see what had happened.
15 Epo bhahinza wa Yesu na bhahalola umuntu uwayinjililwe namapepo—uwali ni jeshi—akhele panzi, bhakwatizye, abhoneha huhakili zyakwa halali bhope bhahogopa.
When they came to Jesus, they found the possessed man sitting there, clothed and in his right mind – the man who had had the ‘Legion’ in him – and they were awe-struck.
16 Bhala bhalole hafumile wa muntu uwa hinjililwe ni pepo bhahabhula hafumile wa mwene ahafumile ahusu inguluvhi.
Then those who had seen it related to them all that had happened to the possessed man, as well as about the pigs;
17 Bhope bhada humwinishe ayepe mkoa gwao.
so they began to beg Jesus to leave their region.
18 Pali pawinjila muhati mwintoli umuntu uwahinjililwe nipepo amwiniha huje bha shilaje bhudhi nu mwene.
As Jesus was getting into the boat, the possessed man begged him to let him stay with him.
19 Lelo haga amwitishile, lelo habhala, “Shilaga hunumba yaho nawabhantu bhao na bhabhule uwabhombile Bwana, iphana ilowapile.”
But Jesus refused. “Go back to your home, to your own people,” he said, “and tell them of all that the Lord has done for you, and how he took pity on you.”
20 Isho ahashila atanganza amambo amagosi uYesu agabhombile wamwene hu Dekapoli, ula muntu aswijile.
So the man went, and began to proclaim in the district of the Ten Towns all that Jesus had done for him; and everyone was amazed.
21 Umuda uYesu palobhoa upande uwinje muhati mwituli ibhunga inyinji ihazywungulaga pati mushinje munsumbi.
By the time Jesus had recrossed in the boat to the opposite shore, a great number of people had gathered to meet him, and were standing by the sea.
22 Uumo uwali longozi wasinagogi, ahitwaga Yailo, ahizile, pali alole, angwile pamagaga agamwene.
One of the leaders of the synagogue, whose name was Jairus, came and, as soon as he saw Jesus, threw himself at his feet and begged him repeatedly,
23 Amwinishe sana amwiniha sana sana, ayanga, “Ulindu wani udodo abhezywa afwe. Ihulamba unyinze ubhishe amakhono pamwene apate ihafya hulamba.”
saying, “My little daughter is at death’s door. Please come and place your hands on her so that she may recover and live.”
24 Isho habhala nawo na ibhuga ingosi sana ihada gana bhavhelaga mpepe vhahunzwungula.
So Jesus went with him. A great number of people followed Jesus, and kept pressing around him.
25 Wali nu shi uli afuma ama danda amaha ilongo limo na maha gavhili.
Meanwhile a woman who for twelve years had suffered from hemorrhage,
26 Alavhile sana waganga abhinji atumila kila hatu anaho hutaisho sashahavha na hamo. Hata hivyo hakusaidika kwa chochote, lelo pipo ali ihali mbivhi.
and undergone much at the hands of many doctors, (spending all she had without obtaining any relief, but, on the contrary, growing worse),
27 Ahuvwa ihali huje uYesu. Aheza khosi wa mwene na pajendaga muhati mubhuga, apala zwa umwenda gwakwe.
heard about Jesus, came behind in the crowd, and touched his cloak.
28 Pipo alyanjile, “Khanapela nvuzywa amenda agakwe lwe, izavhe mwumi.”
“If I can only touch his clothes,” she said, “I will get well!”
29 Pahakhata, afume wakwe idanda iha leha awiyuvwa hula alavhewakwe huleha afume humalabha gakwe.
At once her bleeding stopped, and she felt in herself that she was cured of her affliction.
30 Mala Yesu agundua ndani yake mwenyewe huje ikhone lwa fuma. Agaluhana uhu nuhu mu phuga mwa bhantu navhuzye, “Yunanu uwagusa umwenda gwani?”
Jesus at once became aware of the power that had gone out from him, and, turning around in the crowd, he said, “Who touched my clothes?”
31 Asudwa bhakwe bhabhulile ulola ibhunga izywungulile nawe uyiga 'Yu nanu uwa ngusa?”'
“You see the people pressing around you,” exclaimed his disciples, “and yet you say ‘Who touched me?’”
32 Lelo uYesu ahenya wondi wondi uwa bhombileili.
But Jesus looked about to see who had done it.
33 Ushi, palole ilili fumile afume wa mwene ahogopa nateteme. Aheza nagwe pansi witazi lwakwe nahu bhute izywaziwili zyunti.
Then the woman, in fear and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and threw herself down before him, and told him the whole truth.
34 Ayanga wa mwene, “Lendu, awamini waho huponizywe avhemwumi. Shilaga hu himani upone uponywe afume huvhinu waho.”
“Daughter,” he said, “your faith has delivered you. Go, and peace be with you; be free from your affliction.”
35 Pali aliayanga, bhamo avhatu bhahinza afume walongozi uwi Sinagogi, bhayangaga, “Ulindu waho afwile. Henu uhumbula umwalimo?”
Before he had finished speaking, some people from the house of the synagogue leader came and said, “Your daughter is dead! Why should you trouble the teacher further?”
36 U Yesu pahuvha avhyanga, ahabhula ulongozi uwi Sinagogi, “Unganje awogope. Aminiangatu.”
But Jesus, overhearing what they were saying, said to the synagogue leader, “Do not be afraid; only have faith.”
37 Haga alusu yayunti alongozanye nawo, ila uPetulo, uYakobo, nu Yohana, uholo wakwe Yakobo.
And he allowed no one to accompany him, except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James.
38 Bhahiza khaya walongozi wi Sinagogi wope ahalola ivhujo akhole sana nalile.
Presently they reached the leader’s house, where Jesus saw a scene of confusion – people weeping and wailing incessantly.
39 Pahinza khaya, abhabhulile, “Henu musiliha antele yenu mlila? Umwahaga afwile ila agonile.”
“Why this confusion and weeping?” he said on entering. “The little child is not dead; she is asleep.”
40 Bhaseshile, lelo umwene, abhafumya huzi, amwega uYisu wa mwana nunyina nabhala bhabhali palishimo numwene, ahijila muhati mwali umwana.
They began to laugh at him; but he sent them all out, and then, with the child’s father and mother and his companions, went into the room where she was lying.
41 Ahega ukhono ugwa mwana ahabhula, “Talitha koum,” ambayo huwayanje, “Lindu umwana bhuha.”
Taking her hand, Jesus said to her, “Talitha, koum!” – which means ‘little girl, I am speaking to you – Rise!’
42 Umda ufupi umwana adamula na ajende (pipo alina maha ilogo limo naganji gavhili).
The little girl stood up at once, and began to walk about; for she was twelve years old. And, as soon as they saw it, they were overwhelmed with amazement;
43 Gafula bhahakhatwa nushanga ougosi. Numo yayunthi uyiwaziwa amanye wili. Abha bhula peli ulendu ula ishalye.
but Jesus repeatedly cautioned them not to let anyone know of it, and told them to give her something to eat.
