Luke 5
1 Mme ya re ka letsatsi lengwe a rera mo lotshitshing lwa lecha la Genesareta, bontsintsi jo bogolo jwa batho jwa kokoanela mo go ene go reetsa Lefoko la Modimo.
And it occurred, that a multitude gathered about him, to hear the word of God. And he was standing by the side of the sea of Gennesaret,
2 Mme a lebela mekoro e mebedi e e senang sepe e eme fa thoko ga metse fa batshwari ba ditlhapi ba tlhatswa matloa a bone.
and he saw two ships standing near the sea, and the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.
3 Erile Jesu a tsena mo go mongwe wa mekoro, a raya Simone mong wa mokoro o mongwe a re, a o suteletse kwa pelenyana mo metsing gore a tle a nne mo go one a bue le batho a le mo teng.
And one of them belonged to Simon Cephas: and Jesus entered and sat in it. And he told them to draw off a little from the shore, into the sea: and he seated himself, and taught the multitude from the ship.
4 Erile a sena go fetsa go bua, a raya Simone a re, “Jaanong tsamaela fa go boteng o lese matloa a gago mme o tlaa tshwara ditlhapi di le dintsi!”
And when he ceased from speaking, he said to Simon: Launch out into the deep, and cast your net for a draught.
5 Mme Simone a fetola a re, “Morena,” re dirile thata bosigo jotlhe mme ra se ka ra tshwara sepe, mme fa o rialo re tlaa leka gape.
Simon answered, and said to him: Rabbi, all the night we have toiled, and have caught nothing: but, at thy bidding, I will cast the net.
6 Mme ka nako e matloa a bone a ne a tlala thata mo e leng gore a ne a simolola go gagoga!
And when they had done so, they inclosed very many fishes, so that the net was rent.
7 Mme go goa ga bone ba batla thuso ga tlisa bangwe ka bone mo mokorong o mongwe mme ka bonako mekoro yotlhe ya bo e tletse ditlhapi mo e ka nwelang.
And they made signs to their associates, in the other ship, to come and help them. And when they came, they filled both the ships, so that they were near to sinking.
8 Erile Simone Petere a lemoga se se diragetseng a itigela ka mangole fa pele ga ga Jesu mme a re, “Ao, Morena, tswee-tswee, re tlogele ke moleofi yo mogolo go ka nna le wena.”
And when Simon Cephas saw it, he fell before the feet of Jesus, and said to him: I beseech thee, my Lord, that thou leave me, for I am a sinful man.
9 Gonne o ne a gakgamaditswe thata ke selekanyo se ba se tshwereng jaaka ba bangwe ba ba neng ba na le bone.
For astonishment had seized him, and all that were with him, at the draught of fishes which they had caught:
10 Le bapati ba bangwe le bone bo Jakobe le Johane, bomorwa Sebede. Mme Jesu a fetola a re, “Se tshwenyege! go simolola gompieno lo tlaa tshwara mewa ya batho!”
and in like manner also James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners of Simon. But Jesus said: Fear thou not; henceforth thou shalt catch men unto life.
11 Mme ya re ka bonako fa ba fologa mo mekorong ba tlogela tsotlhe ba tsamaya le ene.
And they brought the vessels to the land: and they left all and followed him.
12 Mme ka letsatsi lengwe mo motsaneng mongwe o a neng a o etela, teng koo ga bo go le monna yo o neng a na le lepero le le sa foleng. Erile a bona Jesu a itigela fa fatshe fa pele ga gagwe, a oba sefatlhogo a kopa gore a fodisiwe. A re, “Morena, fa o rata o ka mphodisa.”
And when Jesus was in one of the cities, a man came all full of leprosy and seeing Jesus, he fell upon his face, and besought him, and said to him: My Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me.
13 Hong Jesu a otlolola seatla a ama monna yoo mme a re, “Go ntse jalo ke a rata, fola!” Mme lepero la mo tlogela ka bonako.
And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, and said to him: I will it; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy went from him.
14 Mme Jesu a mo laela gore a tsamaye ka bofefo a sa bolelele ope se se diragetseng le go ya go tlhatlhojwa ke moperesiti wa Sejuta. Mme Jesu a mo raya a re, “Ntsha setlhabelo se ka molao wa ga Moshe se batlwang mo baleperweng ba ba fodisitsweng. Se se tlaa supegetsa mongwe le mongwe gore o fodile.”
And he charged him: Speak to no one; but go and show thyself to the priests, and offer the oblation for thy purification, as Moses hath commanded, for a testimony to them.
15 Hong polelo ya nonofo ya gagwe ya anama ka bonako mme kokoano e kgolo ya batho ya tla go utlwa a ruta le go fodisiwa malwetse a bone.
And his fame spread abroad still more: and much people assembled to hear him, and to be cured of their diseases.
16 Mme Jesu o ne a tle a ngwangwaelele kwa nageng go ya go rapela.
And he retired into a desert, and prayed.
17 Ka letsatsi lengwe fa a ntse a ruta, bangwe ba molao ba bo ba ntse gaufi nae. (Go ne go bonala fa batho ba ba ne ba tswa mo metsaneng mengwe le mengwe ya Galalea otlhe le Judea, le mo Jerusalema). Mme nonofo ya phodiso ya Morena e ne e le mo go ene.
And it occurred, on one of the days when Jesus was teaching, that Pharisees and Doctors of the law were sitting by, who had come from all the villages of Galilee and of Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was present to heal them.
18 Mme bonang! banna bangwe ba tlaa ba tshotse monna yo o suleng mofama a robetse mo phateng. Ba leka go itshukela mo gare ga bontsintsi jwa batho go ya kwa go Jesu mme ba se ka ba mmona. Jalo ba tlhatlogela mo ditlhomesong fa godimo ga gagwe, ba tlosa makote a a neng a khurumetse ditlhomeso mme ba baya fa fatshe monna yo o lwalang mo bontsintsing jwa batho, a ntse a robetse mo phateng, fa pele ga ga Jesu!
And some persons brought a paralytic man, on a couch, and sought to bring him in, and to place him before him.
And when they could not thus introduce him, because of the multitude of the people, they ascended to the roof, and let him down with the couch, from the covering, into the midst, before Jesus.
20 Mme ya re Jesu a bona tumelo ya bone, a raya monna a re, “Tsala ya me, dibe tsa gago di itshwaretswe!”
And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic: Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.
21 Mme Bafarasai le baruti ba molao ba botsanya ba re, “Motho yo o ikgopola a le eng?” O a tlhapatsa! E mang fa e se Modimo yo o ka itshwarelang dibe.
And the Scribes and Pharisees began to reason, and to say: Who is this that speaketh blasphemy? Who can forgive sins, but God only?
22 Jesu a ba a setse a itsile se ba se akantseng, mme a fetola a re, “Ke eng fa e le tlhapatso?
And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: What think ye in your heart?
23 A go thata go itshwarela dibe tsa gagwe go na le go mo fodisa?”
Which is the easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee, or to say, Arise and walk?
24 Jaanong ke tlaa supa thata ya me go itshwarela sebe ka go supa nonofo ya me ka go fodisa bolwetse. Mme a raya monna yo o suleng mofama a re, “Ema o menaganye phate ya gago o ye gae.”
But that ye may know, that the Son of man is competent to forgive sins on the earth, he said to the paralytic: I say to thee, Arise, take up thy couch, and go to thy home.
25 Mme ya re ka bonako, fa mongwe le mongwe a lebeletse, monna a nanoga a tsaya phate ya gagwe a ya gae a baka Modimo.
And instantly, he rose up before their eyes, and took up his couch, and went home, glorifying God.
26 Mme mongwe le mongwe yo o neng a le foo a tshwarwa ke kgakge le letshogo. Mme ba baka Modimo, ba boaboela gangwe le gape ba re, “Re bone dilo tse di gakgamatsang gompieno.”
And astonishment seized every one; and they Praised God; and they were filled with awe, and said: We have seen wonders today.
27 Mme morago ya re Jesu a tswa mo motseng a bona mokgethisi ka sekao sa gale sa go tsietsa a ntse fa bokgethelong. Leina la monna yo e ne e le Lefi, Jesu a mo raya a re, “Tla o nne mongwe wa barutwa ba me!”
And after these things, Jesus went out and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting among the publicans; and he said to him: Come after me.
28 Mme Lefi, a tlogela sengwe le sengwe a nanoga a tsamaya le ene.
And he left every thing, and arose, and went after him.
29 Mme ka bonako Lefi a dira modiro mo legaeng la gagwe a o direla Jesu e le moeng yo o tlotlegang. Ba le bantsi ba ditsala tsa ga Lefi tsa bakgethisi le baeti ba bangwe ba ne ba le teng.
And Levi made a great entertainment for him at his house; and there was a numerous company of publicans and others who reclined with them.
30 Mme Bafarasai le baruti ba molao ba ngongoregela barutwa ba ga Jesu ka go ja le baleofi ba mofuta oo.
And the Scribes and Pharisees murmured, and said to his disciples: Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?
31 Mme Jesu a ba araba a re, “Ke molwetse yo o tlhokang ngaka eseng ba ba itekanetseng,
And Jesus answered and said to them: A physician is not sought after for the well, but for those very sick.
32 Tiro ya me ke go laletsa baleofi gore ba sokologe mo dibeng tsa bone, eseng go senya nako ya me ka ba ba ikgopolang gore ba setse ba siame thata.”
I came not to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.
33 Ngongorego e nngwe e ne e le ya gore barutwa ba ga Jesu ba dira modiro mo boemong jwa go ikitsa dijo, fa barutwa ba ga Johane le ba Bafarasai bone ba aga ba itima dijo ebile ba rapela. Ba re, “Ke eng fa barutwa ba gago bone ba a nwa ba a ja?”
And they said to him: Why do the disciples of John fast often, and pray, and also those of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink?
34 Jesu a botsa a re, “A batho ba ba itumelang ba ka ikitsa go ja? A balalediwa ba lenyalo ba ka tshwarwa ke tlala fa ba le mo moketeng le monyadi?
And he said to them: Ye cannot make the guests of the nuptial chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them.
35 Mme nako e tlaa tla e monyadi o tlaa bolawang ka yone; ke gone ba se kitlang ba batla go ja.”
But the days will come, when the bridegroom will be taken up from them, and then will they fast, in those days.
36 Hong Jesu a dirisa setshwantsho se: a re, “Ga go na ope yo o gagolang sebata sa seaparo se sesha go bitiya seaparo se segologolo, gonne seaparo se sesha se tlaa bo se sentswe, mme seaparo se segologolo se tlaa lebega se le maswe ka ntlha ya sebata se sesha mo go sone.
And he spoke a similitude to them: No one teareth a patch from a new garment, and putteth it to an old garment; lest he tear the new, and the patch from the new cease to make the old garment whole.
37 Mme ga go ope yo o ka tshelang seno sa mofine se sesha mo teng ga dinkgwana tse di kgologolo, gonne seno se sesha se tlaa phunya dinkgwana mme di tsholole mofine.
And no one putteth new wine into old sacks; otherwise, the new wine will burst the sacks, and the wine will run out, and the sacks be ruined.
38 Mofine o mosha o tshwanetse go tshelwa mo dinkgwaneng tse disha.
But they put new wine into new sacks, and both are preserved.
39 Mme ga go ope yo e a reng a sena go nwa mofine o mogologolo a eletse o mosha. Mme batho ba re ditsela tsa bogologolo di botoka.”
And no one drinketh old wine, and immediately calleth for new; for he saith, The old is the delicious.
