Ruka 4
1 Jesu, azere noMweya Mutsvene, akadzoka kubva paJorodhani akatungamirirwa noMweya mugwenga,
Now Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
2 umo maakaedzwa naSatani kwamazuva makumi mana. Haana chaakadya pamazuva iwayo, uye pakupera kwamazuva iwayo akanzwa nzara.
where he continued forty days, and was tempted by the devil. Having eaten nothing all that time, when it was ended he was hungry:
3 Satani akati kwaari, “Kana iwe uri mwanakomana waMwari, rayira dombo iri kuti rive chingwa.”
and the devil said to him, If thou be God's Son, command this stone to become bread.
4 Jesu akapindura akati, “Kwakanyorwa kuchinzi, ‘Munhu haararami nechingwa bedzi, asi neshoko rimwe nerimwe rinobuda mumuromo maMwari.’”
Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, "Man does not live by bread only, but by whatever God pleases."
5 Satani akamutungamirira kunzvimbo yakakwirira uye akamuratidza munguva diki diki umambo hwose hwenyika.
Then the devil, having brought him to the top of a high mountain, showed him all the kingdoms of the world in an instant,
6 Akati kwaari, “Ndichakupa simba rahwo rose nokubwinya kwahwo, nokuti ndakahupiwa, uye ini ndinogona kuhupa kuna ani zvake wandinoda.
and said to him, All this power and glory I will give thee; for it is delivered to me, and to whomsoever I will, I give it;
7 Saka kana ukandinamata, huchava hwako hwose.”
if, therefore, thou wilt worship me, it shall all be thine.
8 Jesu akapindura akati, “Kwakanyorwa kuchinzi, ‘Namata Ishe Mwari wako umushumire iye oga.’”
Jesus answering, said, It is written, "Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and shalt serve him only."
9 Satani akamutungamirira kuJerusarema akamuita kuti amire pachiruvi chetemberi. Akati kwaari, “Kana uri mwanakomana waMwari, zviwisire pasi uchibva pano.
Then he brought him to Jerusalem, and placing him on the battlement of the temple, said to him, If thou be God's Son, throw thyself down hence;
10 Nokuti kwakanyorwa kuchinzi: “‘Acharayira vatumwa vake pamusoro pako kuti vakuchengete kwazvo;
for it is written, "He will give his angels charge concerning thee, to keep thee;
11 vachakusimudza mumaoko avo, kuti rutsoka rwako rurege kugumburwa padombo.’”
and, in their arms they shall uphold thee, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone."
12 Jesu akati, “Zvinonzi, ‘Usaedza Ishe Mwari wako.’”
Jesus answered, It is said, "Thou shalt not put the Lord thy God to the proof."
13 Satani akati apedza kuedza kwake kwose uku, akabva paari kusvikira pane imwe nguva.
When the devil had ended all the temptation, he departed from him for a time.
14 Jesu akadzokera kuGarirea musimba roMweya, uye shoko pamusoro pake rakapararira kumativi ose enyika.
Then Jesus, by the impulse of the Spirit, returned to Galilee, and his renown spread throughout the whole country,
15 Akadzidzisa mumasinagoge avo, uye munhu wose akamurumbidza.
and he taught in their synagogues with universal applause.
16 Akaenda kuNazareta, kwaakanga arerwa, uye nomusi weSabata akapinda musinagoge, setsika yake. Akasimuka kuti averenge.
Being come to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, he entered the synagogue, as his custom was, on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.
17 Rugwaro rwakapetwa rwaIsaya rwakapiwa kwaari. Pakurubhedhenura, akawana pakanga pakanyorwa kuti:
And they put into his hands the book of the Prophet Isaiah, and having opened the book, he found the place where it is written,
18 “Mweya waShe uri pamusoro pangu, nokuti akandizodza kuti ndiparidze vhangeri kuvarombo. Akandituma kuti ndiparidze rusununguko kuna vakasungwa uye kuti vasingaoni vaone, kuti ndisunungure vakamanikidzwa,
"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, inasmuch as he has anointed me to publish glad tidings to the poor, to announce liberty to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to release the oppressed,
19 kuti ndiparidze gore rakanaka raShe.”
to proclaim the year of acceptance with the Lord."
20 Ipapo akapeta rugwaro, akarudzosera kumubati akagara pasi. Meso avanhu vose vakanga vari musinagoge akanga akati nde-e kwaari,
And having closed the book, and returned it to the servant, he sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed upon him.
21 uye akatanga nokuti kwavari, “Nhasi rugwaro urwu rwazadziswa munzeve dzenyu.”
And he began with saying to them, This very day, the scripture which you have just now heard, is fulfilled.
22 Vose vakataura zvakanaka pamusoro pake uye vakashamiswa namashoko akanaka akanga achibuda mumuromo make. Vakati, “Ko, uyu haazi mwanakomana waJosefa here?”
And all extolled him; but being astonished at the gracious words which he uttered, they said, Is not this Joseph's son?
23 Jesu akati kwavari, “Zvirokwazvo muchataura tsumo iyi kwandiri muchiti: ‘Murapi, chizvirapa! Itawo muguta rako rino zvatakanzwa kuti wakaita muKapenaume.’”
He said to them, You will doubtless apply to me this proverb, "Physician, cure yourself." Do as great things here in your own country, as we hear you have done in Capernaum.
24 Akaenderera mberi achiti, “Ndinokuudzai chokwadi kuti hakuna muprofita anogamuchirwa muguta rake.
But in fact, added he, No prophet was ever well received in his own country.
25 Ndinokuudzai chokwadi kuti kwakanga kune chirikadzi zhinji muIsraeri panguva yaEria, panguva yakadzivirwa denga kwamakore matatu nehafu uye nzara huru ikavapo munyika yose.
I tell you of a truth, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when heaven was shut up for three years and a half, so that there was great famine throughout all the land;
26 Asi Eria haana kutumwa kuno mumwe wavo, asi kuchirikadzi yeZerafati munyika yeSidhoni.
yet to none of them was Elijah sent, but to a widow in Sarepta, of Sidonia.
27 Uye kwaiva navazhinji vaiva namaperembudzi panguva yaEria muprofita, asi hapana mumwe chete pakati pavo akanatswa kunze kwaNaamani muSiria.”
There were likewise many lepers in Israel, in the days of Elisha the prophet; and Naaman the Syrian was cleansed, but none of those.
28 Vanhu vose vakanga vari musinagoge vakatsamwa kwazvo pavakanzwa izvi.
On hearing this, the whole synagogue were enraged,
29 Vakasimuka, vakamubudisa muguta, vakamutora vakaenda naye kumucheto cheto kwechikomo chakanga chakavakirwa guta ravo, kuti vamusundidzire kumawere.
and breaking up, drove him out of the city, and brought him to the brow of the mountain on which their city was built, that they might throw him down headlong.
30 Asi akafamba napakati pemhomho yavanhu akaenda zvake.
But he, passing through the midst of them, went away.
31 Ipapo akaburuka zasi kuKapenaume, guta riri muGarirea, akatanga kudzidzisa vanhu nomusi weSabata.
Then he came to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the Sabbath.
32 Vakashamiswa nokudzidzisa kwake, nokuti shoko rake raiva nesimba.
And they were struck with awe at his manner of teaching; for he spoke with authority.
33 Musinagoge makanga muno murume akanga akabatwa nedhimoni, mweya wakaipa, uye akadanidzira nenzwi guru achiti,
Now there was in the synagogue a man possessed by the spirit of an unclean demon, who roared out, saying,
34 “A! Munodeiko kwatiri imi Jesu weNazareta? Ko, mauya kuzotiparadza kanhi? Ndinoziva kuti muri ani, muri Mutsvene waMwari!”
Ah! Jesus of Nazareth, what hast thou to do with us? Art thou come to destroy us? I know who thou art--the Holy One of God.
35 Jesu akaurayira achiti, “Nyarara! Buda maari!” Ipapo dhimoni rakaputsira murume uyu pasi pamberi pavo vose rikabuda risina kumukuvadza.
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be silent, and come out of him. On this, the demon, having thrown him into the middle of the assembly, came out without harming him.
36 Vanhu vose vakashamiswa vakataurirana vachiti, “Kudzidzisa uku ndokupi? Anorayira mweya yakaipa nechikuriri uye nesimba, ichibva yabuda!”
And they were all in amazement, and said one to another, What does this mean, that with authority and power he command the unclean spirits, and they come out?
37 Mukurumbira wake wakapararira munzvimbo dzose dzakapoteredza.
From that time, his fame was published in every corner of the country.
38 Jesu akabva pasinagoge akaenda kumba kwaSimoni. Zvino mai vomukadzi waSimoni vairwara nefivha, uye vakakumbira Jesu kuti avabatsire.
When he was gone out of the synagogue, he entered the house of Simon, whose wife's mother had a violent fever, and they entreated him on her behalf.
39 Saka akakotamira kwavari akarayira fivha, ikabva pavari. Vakasimuka pakarepo vakatanga kuvashandira.
Jesus, standing near her, rebuked the fever, and it left her, and she instantly arose, and served them.
40 Zuva rakati rodoka, vanhu vakauya kuna Jesu navose vakanga vana marudzi akasiyana-siyana ezvirwere, akaisa maoko ake pamusoro pomumwe nomumwe wavo akavaporesa.
After sunset, all they who had any sick, of whatever kind of disease, brought them to him; and he, laying his hands on every one, cured them.
41 Pamusoro paizvozvo, madhimoni akabuda muvanhu vazhinji, achidanidzira achiti, “Ndiwe Mwanakomana waMwari!” Asi iye akaatsiura akasaatendera kuti ataure, nokuti iwo aiziva kuti ndiye Kristu.
Demons also came out of many, crying out, Thou art the Son of God. But he rebuked them, and would not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was the Messiah.
42 Mangwanani-ngwanani, Jesu akaenda kunzvimbo yakanyarara ari oga. Vanhu vakanga vachimutsvaka uye vakati vamuwana paakanga ari, vakaedza kumudzivisa kuti asabva kwavari.
When it was day, he retired into a desert place; and the multitude sought him out, and came to him, and urged him not to leave them;
43 Asi iye akati, “Ndinofanira kuparidza vhangeri roumambo hwaMwari kuna mamwewo maguta, nokuti ndizvo zvandakatumirwa.”
but he said to them, I must publish the good tidings of the Reign of God in other cities also, because for this purpose I am sent.
44 Uye akaramba achiparidza mumasinagoge eJudhea.
Accordingly, he made this publication in the synagogues of Galilee.
