Ruka 10
1 Shure kwaizvozvo Ishe akagadza vamwe makumi manomwe akavatuma achiita vaviri vaviri pamberi pake kumaguta nokunzvimbo dzose kwaakanga achizoenda.
After these things, the Lord appointed also seventy others, and sent them two and two before him into every city and place where he himself was about to come.
2 Akati kwavari, “Kukohwa kukuru, asi vashandi vashoma. Naizvozvo kumbirai kuna She wokukohwa, kuti atume vashandi mumunda wake wokukohwa.
And he said to them, The harvest is great, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers for his harvest.
3 Endai! Ndiri kukutumai samakwayana pakati pamapere.
Go forth; lo! I send you as lambs into the midst of wolves.
4 Musatora chikwama, kana hombodo, kana shangu; uye musakwazisa munhu panzira.
Carry no purse, no bag, no sandals; salute no one by the way.
5 “Pamunopinda mumba, mutange namashoko okuti, ‘Rugare ngaruve muimba ino.’
And into whatever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.
6 Kana munhu worugare arimo, rugare rwenyu ruchazorora pamusoro pake; kana zvikasadaro, ruchadzokera kwamuri.
And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it; if not, it shall return to you.
7 Garai muimba iyoyo muchidya nokunwa zvose zvavanokupai nokuti mubati akafanirwa nomubayiro wake. Musapota-pota nedzimba.
And abide in the same house, eating and drinking such things as they give; for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.
8 “Pamunopinda muguta uye vakakugamuchirai, mudye zvose zvinoiswa pamberi penyu.
And into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat what is set before you,
9 Poresai vanorwara varimo mugovaudza kuti, ‘Umambo hwaMwari hwaswedera.’
and heal the sick that are therein, and say to them, The kingdom of God hath come near to you.
10 Asi pamunopinda muguta uye mukasagamuchirwa, muende munzira dzaro mugoti,
But into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go out into its streets and say,
11 ‘Kunyange neguruva reguta renyu rakanamatira patsoka dzedu tinoripukuta nokuda kwenyu. Asi muzive izvi: Umambo hwaMwari hwaswedera.’
Even the dust of your city that cleaveth to our feet we wipe off to you; but know this, that the kingdom of God hath come near.
12 Ndinokuudzai kuti pazuva iro, Sodhomu richarerukirwa kwazvo kupfuura guta iroro.
And I tell you, that it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.
13 “Une nhamo iwe, Korazini! Une nhamo iwe, Bhetisaidha! Nokuti dai zvishamiso zvakaitwa mauri zvakanga zvaitwa muTire neSidhoni, vangadai vakatendeuka kare, vakagara mumadota vakafuka masaga.
Woe to thee, Chorazin! woe to thee, Bethsaida! for if the miracles that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would long ago have repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Asi Tire neSidhoni zvicharerukirwa pakutongwa kupfuura imi.
But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment, than for you.
And thou, Capernaum! shalt thou be exalted to heaven? thou shalt be brought down to the underworld. (Hadēs g86)
16 “Anokunzwai imi, anondinzwa ini; uyo anokurambai imi, anondirambawo ini; asi uyo anondiramba, anoramba iye akandituma.”
He that hearkeneth to you, hearkeneth to me; and he that rejecteth you, rejecteth me; but he that rejecteth me, rejecteth him that sent me.
17 Vana makumi manomwe vakadzoka nomufaro vakati, “Ishe, kunyange madhimoni anozviisa pasi pedu muzita renyu.”
And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject to us in thy name.
18 Akati kwavari, “Ndakaona Satani achiwa kubva kudenga semheni.
And he said to them, I saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning.
19 Ndakupai simba rokuti mutsike pamusoro penyoka nezvinyavada uye kuti mukunde simba rose romuvengi; hakuna chichakukuvadzai.
Lo! I have given you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the might of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 Kunyange zvakadaro hazvo, musafara nokuti mweya yakaipa inozviisa pasi penyu, asi farai kuti mazita enyu akanyorwa kudenga.”
Yet rejoice not in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names have been written in heaven.
21 Panguva iyoyo Jesu azere nomufaro kubudikidza noMweya Mutsvene, akati, “Ndinokuvongai, Baba, Ishe wokudenga nepasi, nokuti makavanzira vakachenjera navakadzidza zvinhu izvi, mukazvizarurira kuvacheche. Hongu, Baba nokuti zvakakufadzai.
In that hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that, though thou didst hide these things from the wise and discerning, thou didst reveal them to babes. Yea, Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight. And turning to the disciples he said,
22 “Zvinhu zvose ndakazvipiwa naBaba vangu. Hakuna munhu anoziva kuti Mwanakomana ndiani kunze kwaBaba, uye hakuna munhu anoziva kuti Baba ndiani kunze kwoMwanakomana naavo Mwanakomana vaanenge asarudza kuvazarurira.”
All things were delivered to me by my Father; and no one knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom it is the will of the Son to reveal him.
23 Ipapo akatendeukira kuvadzidzi vake vari voga akati, “Akaropafadzwa meso anoona zvamuoona,
And turning to the disciples, he said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye are seeing.
24 nokuti ndinokuudzai kuti vaprofita vazhinji namadzimambo vaida kuona zvamunoona asi havana kuzviona, uye nokunzwa zvamunonzwa asi havana kuzvinzwa.”
For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which ye are seeing, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye are hearing, and heard them not.
25 Mumwe musi mududziri womurayiro akasimuka kuti aedze Jesu. Akati, “Mudzidzisi ndinofanira kuiteiko kuti ndiwane nhaka youpenyu husingaperi?” (aiōnios g166)
And lo! a certain lawyer stood up to try him, saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit everlasting life? (aiōnios g166)
26 Iye akapindura akati, “Mumurayiro makanyorweiko? Unouverenga seiko?”
And he said to him, What is written in the Law? How readest thou?
27 Akapindura akati, “‘Ida Ishe Mwari wako nomwoyo wako wose, uye nomweya wako wose, uye nesimba rako rose nokufunga kwako kwose,’ uye ‘Ida muvakidzani wako sokuda kwaunozviita iwe.’”
And he answering said “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.”
28 Jesu akapindura akati, “Wapindura zvakanaka. Ita izvozvo ugorarama.”
And he said to him, Thou hast answered rightly; do this, and thou shalt live.
29 Asi iye akanga achida kuzviruramisa, saka akabvunza Jesu akati, “Muvakidzani wangu ndianiko?”
But he, wishing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?
30 Jesu akapindura akati, “Mumwe murume aiburuka achibva kuJerusarema achienda kuJeriko, paakawira mumaoko amakororo. Vakamubvisa nguo dzake, vakamurova ndokuenda zvavo, vachimusiya oda kufa.
Jesus answering said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers; who after stripping him of his raiment, and wounding him, departed, leaving him half dead.
31 Zvakaitika kuti mumwe muprista akafambawo nenzira iyoyo, uye akati achiona murume uyo, akamunyenyeredza.
And by chance a certain priest was going down on that road; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 Saizvozvowo, muRevhi akasvika panzvimbo iyoyo akamuona, akamunyenyeredzawo.
And in like manner also a Levite, having arrived at the place, came and saw, and passed by on the other side.
33 Asi muSamaria, aiva parwendo, akasvika pakanga pano murume uya; uye akati achimuona, akamunzwira tsitsi.
But a certain Samaritan, as he was journeying, came where he was, and when he saw him, had compassion,
34 Akaenda paari akamusunga maronda ake, akaadira mafuta newaini. Ipapo akamutora akamukwidza pambongoro yake, akamuendesa kuimba yavaeni, akamuchengeta.
and went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine, and setting him on his own beast, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 Fume mangwana akatora mari yesirivha akaipa kumuchengeti weimba yavaeni. Akati kwaari, ‘Muchengetei uye pandinodzoka, ndichakuripirai zvose zvamunenge mawedzera pane zvandakupai.’
And the next day, he took out two denaries and gave them to the host, and said, Take care of him; and whatever thou spendest more, I, when I come back, will repay thee.
36 “Ndianiko pavanhu vatatu ava waunofunga kuti akanga ari muvakidzani kuna iye akawira mumaoko amakororo?”
Which of these three, dost thou think, was neighbor to him that fell among the robbers?
37 Mududziri womurayiro akati, “Uyo akamunzwira tsitsi.” Jesu akati kwaari, “Enda unoita saizvozvo.”
And he said, He that took pity on him. Then said Jesus to him, Go, and do thou likewise.
38 Jesu navadzidzi vake pavakanga vachifamba, vakasvika pano mumwe musha; mumwe mukadzi ainzi Marita akamugamuchira mumba make.
And it came to pass, as they journeyed, that he entered into a certain village; and a certain woman, named Martha, received him into her house.
39 Akanga ano mununʼuna wake ainzi Maria, uyo akagara patsoka dzaShe achiteerera kune zvaakanga achitaura.
And she had a sister called Mary, who sat down at the feet of the Lord, and listened to his word.
40 Asi Marita akatadziswa kuteerera nokuda kwokugadzirira kwose kwaifanira kuitwa. Akauya kwaari akati, “Ishe hamuna hanya here kuti mununʼuna wangu andisiya ndichingoshanda ndoga? Muudzei kuti andibatsirewo!”
But Martha was cumbered about much serving; and she came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? Tell her therefore to help me.
41 Ishe akapindura akati, “Marita, Marita, uri kufunganya nokugumburwa pamusoro pezvinhu zvizhinji,
But the Lord answering said to her, Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about many things.
42 asi pane chinhu chimwe chete chinodikanwa. Maria asarudza chinhu chiri nani, uye haazochitorerwi.”
But one thing is needful. For Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
