Ruka 8
1 Shure kwaizvozvo, Jesu akafamba nomumaguta nomumisha, achiparidza vhangeri roumambo hwaMwari. Vane gumi navaviri vakanga vanaye,
And it came to pass afterwards that He went through every city and village, preaching and declaring the good tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with Him;
2 uye vamwewo vakadzi vakanga vaporeswa pazvirwere nemweya yakaipa vaiti: Maria (ainzi Magadharena) uya akanga abudiswa mweya yakaipa minomwe maari,
and some women that had been cured of evil spirits and other infirmities, as Mary Magdalene, out of whom were cast seven demons,
3 Joana mukadzi waKuza, mutariri weimba yaHerodhi, Suzana, navamwe vazhinji. Vakadzi ava vaivabatsira nokuvatsigira nezvavaiva nazvo.
and Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who assisted Him with their substance.
4 Ungano huru yakati yavapo, vanhu vachibva kumaguta namaguta vachiuya kuna Jesu, akavataurira mufananidzo uyu:
And when a great multitude was gathered together, of those that came to Him out of every city, He spake a parable saying,
5 “Murimi akabuda kundokusha mbeu yake. Paakanga achikusha mbeu, imwe yakawira munzira, ikatsikwa-tsikwa uye shiri dzedenga dzikaidya.
A sower went out to sow his seed, and as he was sowing, some fell by the way-side, and was trodden down, and the birds of the air devoured it.
6 Imwe yakawira parukangarahwe, uye payakamera, yakasvava nokuti pakanga pasina unyoro.
And some fell upon stony ground, and as soon as it sprung up, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 Imwe mbeu yakawira pakati peminzwa, minzwa ikakura pamwe chete nayo ikaivhunga.
And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up with it and choked it.
8 Asi imwe mbeu yakawira pavhu rakanaka. Yakamera ikabereka zvibereko, zvakapetwa kazana pane zvakanga zvadyarwa.” Akati ataura izvi, akadanidzira akati, “Ane nzeve dzokunzwa, ngaanzwe.”
But some fell on good ground, and sprang up and yielded fruit an hundred-fold. And as He said these things He cried out, "He that hath ears to hear, let him hear."
9 Vadzidzi vake vakamubvunza kuti mufananidzo uyu wairevei.
And his disciples asked Him, what might be the meaning of this parable.
10 Iye akati, “Kuziva zvakavanzika zvoumambo hwaMwari kwakapiwa kwamuri, asi kuna vamwe, ndinotaura nomufananidzo kuitira kuti, “‘kunyange vachitarira, varege kuonesesa; kunyange vachinzwa, varege kunzwisisa.’
And He said, To you it is granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but I speak to others in parables, that in seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
11 “Izvi ndizvo zvinoreva mufananidzo: Mbeu ndiro shoko raMwari.
Now this is the meaning of the parable, The seed is the word of God:
12 Dziya dzakawira munzira ndivo vaya vanonzwa, ipapo dhiabhori anouya uye agovatorera shoko pamwoyo yavo, kuitira kuti varege kutenda vagoponeswa.
and those by the way-side, are such as hear indeed; but then the devil cometh and taketh away the word from their hearts, least they should believe and be saved.
13 Dziya dzakawira parukangarahwe, ndivo vaya vanogamuchira shoko nomufaro kana varinzwa, asi havana mudzi. Vanongotenda kwechinguva, asi munguva dzokuedzwa vanowira pasi.
And those on stony-ground are such as when they hear, receive the word with joy; but have no root, and so believe only for a while, and in the time of trial fall away.
14 Mbeu yakawira muminzwa yakamirira vaya vanonzwa asi pakufamba kwavo vanovhungwa nokufunganya kwoupenyu, upfumi namafaro, havazosviki pakubereka zvibereko.
And that which fell among thorns, are those who when they have heard the word go away and are choked with the cares and riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
15 Asi mbeu yapavhu rakanaka inomirira vaya vane mwoyo yakatendeka uye yakanaka, vanonzwa shoko, vorichengeta, uye nokuda kwokutsungirira kwavo vanobereka zvibereko.
But that on the good ground, are those who having heard the word, retain it in a good and honest heart, and bring forth fruit with patience.
16 “Hakuna munhu anotungidza mwenje obva auvanza pasi pedengu kana kuuisa pasi pomubhedha. Asi, anouisa pamusoro pechigadziko, kuitira kuti vose vanopinda vavhenekerwe.
No man when he hath lighted a candle covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a couch; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they who come in may see the light.
17 Nokuti hakuna chakavanzika chisingazobudiswi pachena, uye hakuna chakavigwa chisingazozivikanwi kana kuiswa pachena.
(For there is nothing secret, that shall not be made manifest: nor any thing concealed, which shall not be made known and come to light.)
18 Naizvozvo nyatsofungisisai kuti munonzwa sei. Ani naani anazvo achapiwa zvakawanda, ani naani asina, achatorerwa kunyange nezvaanofunga kuti anazvo.”
Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever improveth what he hath, to him shall more be given; and whosoever hath not, even what he seemeth to have shall be taken from him.
19 Zvino mai vaJesu navanunʼuna vake vakauya kuzomuona, asi vakanga vasingagoni kuswedera pedyo naye nokuda kwavanhu vazhinji.
Now his mother and his brethren came to Him, and could not come at Him for the croud:
20 Mumwe akati kwaari, “Mai venyu navanunʼuna venyu vamire kunze, vanoda kukuonai.”
and it was told Him, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without desiring to see thee.
21 Akapindura akati, “Mai vangu navanunʼuna vangu ndivo avo vanonzwa shoko raMwari vachiriita.”
And He answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these that hear the word of God and do it.
22 Rimwe zuva Jesu akati kuvadzidzi vake, “Ngatiyambukirei mhiri kwegungwa.” Naizvozvo vakapinda mugwa vakatanga kufamba.
And it came to pass on one of the days that He went into a ship, Himself and his disciples, and He said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the lake.
23 Pavakanga vachifamba, akavata. Dutu guru rakauya mugungwa, zvokuti igwa rakanga rava kunyura, uye vakanga vava munjodzi huru.
And they launched forth: but as they were failing, He fell asleep: and a storm of wind came down upon the lake, and they were filled with water, and were in great danger.
24 Vadzidzi vakaenda vakandomumutsa vachiti, “Tenzi, Tenzi, tava kunyura!” Ipapo akamuka akarayira mhepo namafungu emvura zhinji, dutu rikaserera, uye kukadzikama kwazvo.
And they came to Him and awoke Him, saying, Master, master, we are perishing. Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Akabvunza vadzidzi vake akati, “Kutenda kwenyu kuripiko?” Mukutya kwavo nokushamiswa kwavo, vakabvunzana pakati pavo vachiti, “Ndianiko uyu? Anorayira kunyange mhepo nemvura zvichimuteerera.”
And He said unto them, Where is your faith? But they were struck with awe and amazement, and said one to another, who is this? for He commandeth even the winds and the sea, and they obey Him.
26 Vakasvika kunyika yavaGerase, iri mhiri kwegungwa reGarirea.
And they sailed to the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee.
27 Jesu akati ayambuka gungwa, akasangana nomurume akanga akabatwa nedhimoni achibva muguta. Murume uyu akanga asingapfeki nguo kwenguva refu kana kugara mumba, asi aigara kumakuva.
And when He was landed, there met Him a man out of the city, who had been possessed by demons a long while, and wore no clothes, and abode in no dwelling but the tombs.
28 Akati aona Jesu, akadanidzira akawira pamakumbo ake, akati nenzwi guru, “Munodeiko kwandiri, Jesu, Mwanakomana waMwari Wokumusoro-soro? Ndinokukumbirisai, regai kunditambudza!”
But when he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down to Him, and said with a loud voice, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I beseech thee, do not torment me.
29 Nokuti Jesu akanga arayira mweya wakaipa kuti ubude maari. Kazhinji waimubata, uye kunyange akange akasungwa nengetani mumaoko nomumakumbo uye akarindwa, aidambura ngetani obva aendeswa nedhimoni kurenje.
(For He commanded the impure spirit to come out of the man; which had oftentimes seized him so violently, that tho' he was bound with chains and fetters, yet he broke the bands asunder, and was driven by the demon into those lonely places.)
30 Jesu akamubvunza akati, “Zita rako ndiwe ani?” Akapindura akati, “Regioni,” nokuti madhimoni mazhinji akanga apinda maari.
And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? and he said, Legion: because many demons were entred into him.
And they besought Him that He would not command them to go into the abyss: (Abyssos g12)
32 Pakanga pane boka guru renguruve raifura mujinga mechikomo. Madhimoni akakumbirisa Jesu kuti aabvumire kupinda madziri, akaatendera.
but as there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain, they intreated Him that He would suffer them to enter into them, and He permitted them.
33 Madhimoni akati abuda mumunhu uyo akandopinda munguruve, uye boka renguruve rakamhanyira kumawere kugungwa rikanyuramo.
So the demons went out of the man and entred into the swine: and the herd ran violently down the hill into the lake and were drowned.
34 Vaifudza nguruve vakati vaona zvakanga zvaitika, vakatiza vakandozivisa izvi muguta nomuruwa,
And when those that looked after them saw what was done they fled; and went and told it in city and country:
35 uye vanhu vakabuda kunoona zvakanga zvaitika. Vakati vasvika kuna Jesu vakawana murume akanga abuda madhimoni maari, agere patsoka dzaJesu, apfeka uye ava munhu kwaye, vakatya.
and the people went out to see what was done, and came to Jesus; and found the man, from whom the demons were gone out, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind:
36 Vaya vakanga vazviona vakaudza vanhu kuti murume akanga ane dhimoni ainge aporeswa sei.
and they were afraid, for those that saw it told them how the demoniac was healed.
37 Ipapo vanhu vose vomunyika yeGerase vakakumbira Jesu kuti abve kwavari, nokuti vakanga vabatwa nokutya. Saka akapinda mugwa akaenda.
And all the people of the country round about the Gadarenes desired Him to depart from them; for they were seized with great fear: and He went into the ship and returned.
38 Murume akanga abuda madhimoni maari akamukumbirisa kuti aende naye, asi Jesu akamuendesa achiti,
Now the man from whom the demons were gone out, prayed Him to let him be with Him: but Jesus sent him away,
39 “Dzokera kumba kwako undotaura kuti Mwari akuitira zvinhu zvakaita sei.” Saka murume uyu akaenda akandotaura muguta rose zvinhu zvikuru zvaakanga aitirwa naJesu.
saying, Return home, and relate what God hath done for thee. So he went away publishing through the whole city what great things Jesus had done to him.
40 Zvino Jesu akati adzoka, akagamuchirwa navanhu vazhinji, nokuti vakanga vakamutarisira.
And when Jesus returned, a great multitude of people received Him; for they were all waiting for Him.
41 Ipapo murume ainzi Jairosi, mubati wesinagoge, akauya akawira patsoka dzaJesu, akamukumbirisa kuti auye kumba kwake
And behold there came a man whose name was Jairus, a ruler of the synagogue, and he fell at the feet of Jesus, and intreated Him to come into his house:
42 nokuti mwanasikana wake akanga achingova mumwe oga, musikana aiva namakore anenge gumi namaviri, akanga ava kufa. Jesu akati achiendako, vanhu vazhinji vakange vachamutsikirira.
for he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. (But as He was going, the people crouded Him:
43 Uye paiva nomumwe mukadzi aiva nechirwere chokubuda ropa kwamakore gumi namaviri, asi kusina munhu aigona kumuporesa.
and a woman who had been in a flux twelve years, and had spent her whole livelyhood upon physicians,
44 Akauya neshure kwaJesu akabata mupendero wenguo yake, pakarepo kubuda kweropa kukabva kwaguma.
but could not be healed by any, came close behind Him and touched the hem of his garment, and immediately her flux was stopt.
45 Jesu akati, “Ndianiko andibata?” Vose vakati varamba kubvuma, Petro akati, “Tenzi, vanhu vari kukumomoterai nokukutsimbirirai.”
And Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied it, Peter, and those that were with him, said, Sir, the multitudes throng and press thee, and dost thou ask, Who was it that touched me?
46 Asi Jesu akati, “Pane mumwe andibata; ndinoziva nokuti simba rabuda mandiri.”
And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive a peculiar virtue is gone out of me.
47 Ipapo mukadzi akati aona kuti haangavandi, akauya achidedera akasvikowira patsoka dzake. Pamberi pavanhu vose akamuudza kuti sei akanga amubata, uye kuti akanga apora sei pakarepo.
And when the woman saw that she was not concealed, she came trembling, and fell down to Him, and declared before all the people, for what reason she had touched Him, and how she was healed immediately.
48 Ipapo akati kwaari, “Mwanasikana, kutenda kwako kwakuporesa. Enda norugare.”
And He said unto her, Daughter, be comforted, thy faith has healed thee, go in peace.)
49 Jesu achiri kutaura, mumwe aibva kumba kwaJairosi, mubati wesinagoge, akasvika akati, “Mwanasikana wenyu afa. Chiregai henyu kuramba muchinetsa mudzidzisi.”
While He was yet speaking, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's, and said to Him, Thy daughter is dead, trouble not the Master.
50 Jesu akati anzwa izvi, akati kuna Jairosi, “Usatya; tenda chete, achaporeswa.”
But Jesus hearing it, answered saying, Fear not, only believe, and she shall be recovered.
51 Akati asvika kumba kwaJairosi, haana kutendera ani zvake kuti apinde naye kunze kwaPetro, Johani naJakobho, uye nababa namai vomwana.
And when He came to the house, He suffered none to go in but Peter, and James, and John, and the father and mother of the child.
52 Panguva iyi, vanhu vose vainge vachiungudza uye vachimuchema. Jesu akati, “Nyararai kuchema. Haana kufa asi avete.”
And they were all weeping and bewailing her: but He said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.
53 Vakamuseka, nokuti vaiziva kuti akanga afa.
And they laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead.
54 Asi akamubata ruoko akati, “Mwanangu, muka!”
But He turned them all out, and taking hold of her hand, called to her, saying, Child, arise.
55 Mweya wake wakadzokera maari, pakarepo akasimuka. Ipapo Jesu akavarayira kuti vamupe zvokudya.
And her spirit returned, and immediately she stood up: and He ordered something to be given her to eat.
56 Vabereki vake vakashamiswa, asi akavarayira kuti vasaudze munhu zvakanga zvaitika.
And her parents were exceedingly astonished: but He charged them to tell no one what was done.
