Luka 13
1 Pacindico bantu bambi balikubapo balamwambila Yesu makani a bantu baku Galileya abo Pilato mbwalashina mung'anda ya Lesa nekusankanya milopa yabo pamilumbo njobalikubenga kuli Lesa.
NOW at that time came some and told him of the Galiloyee, they whose blood Pilatos had mingled with their sacrifices.
2 Lino Yesu walabakumbuleti, “Sena mulayeyengeti abo ba Galileya balashininwa balikuba baipa kupita ba Galileya bambi bonse?
Jeshu answered and said to them, Think you that these Galiloyee were sinners more than all the Galiloyee, that thus it was (with) them?
3 Sobwe! Lino ndamwambilingeti na mubule kusanduka kubwipishi bwenu nenjamwe nimukafweti basa.
No; but I tell you that all of you also, if you repent not, will thus perish.
4 Nomba abo bantu likumi nebasanu ne batatu lwalabawila lubumbu lutali lwa ku Siloamu, mulayeyengeti balikuba baipa kupita bantu bonse balikwikala mu Yelusalemu?
Or those eighteen on whom fell the tower in Silucha, and killed them; think you that they were sinners above all men who dwell in Urishlem?
5 Sobwe! Nsombi namubule kusanduka kubwipishi bwenu nenjamwe nimukafwe eti basa.”
No; but I tell you that, if you repent not, all of you likewise shall perish.
6 Kayi Yesu walabambila mukoshanyo uwu, “Kwalikuba muntu naumbi walikukute citondo ca mukuyu calikuba mulibala lya minyansa. Bumbi busuba walaya kucitondo kuya kubonako nkuyu, nsombi liya kushicanako.
And he spake this parable: A man had a fig-tree which was planted in his vinery: and he came and sought fruits on it, but did not find.
7 Lino walambila musebenshi eti, ‘Bona nibyaka bitatu nkanjisa kuno kuyanda nkuyu kumukuyu uyu, nsombi nkankute kucanapo. Lino citeme cilonongelenga cani bulongo’
And he said to the husbandman, Behold, three years come I seeking fruits from this fig-tree, but I have not found: cut it down; why maketh it the ground useless?
8 Nomba nendi walakumbuleti, ‘Mwami ulekeni kwacaka cino conka. Nindubambilile cena nekubika mboleshi.
The husbandman saith to him, My lord, suffer it also this year, until I tend it and manure it:
9 Mpani nicikekate bisepo mwakali. Nsombi na cikabule kwikata mukaciteme.’”
and if it produce fruits, (well): but if not, then afterwards I will cut it down.
10 Lino pabusuba bumbi bwa Sabata, Yesu walikwiyisha mung'anda yakupaililamo.
AS Jeshu was teaching on a shabath in one of the synagogues,
11 Mung'anda umo mwalikuba mutukashi walikuba ne mishimu yaipa walapenga kwa byaka likumi ne bisanu ne bitatu. Walikwenda kali wakotama, nkalikucikosha kololoka nambi pang'ana.
a woman was there who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years; and she was bowed down, and could not be straight at all.
12 Lino Yesu mpwalabona mutukashi uyo walamwambileti, “Mutukashi, ulasungululwa kubulwashi bwakobe.”
But Jeshu saw her, and called her, and said to her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.
13 Lino Yesu walabika makasa akendi pali endiye, popelapo walololoka nekutatika kulumbaisha Lesa.
And he laid his hand upon her; and at once she was made straight, and glorified Aloha.
14 Lino mukulene wa ng'anda ya kupaililamo walakalala cepa mpwalaboneti Yesu lashiliki muntu pa busuba bwa Sabata. Lino walambila bantu eti, “Kuli masuba asanu ne bumo ngotwelela kusebensa mbuli ncocalembwa mumilawo. Neco mwisenga kushilikwa mumasubayo, kufunyakowa pa busuba bwa Sabata Sobwe.”
But the chief of the synagogue answered, being angry that Jeshu had healed on the shabath, and said to the congregation, Six days there are in which it is lawful to work: in them come and be healed, and not on the day of shabath.
15 Lino Mwami Yesu walamukumbuleti, “Amwe mobantu omukute kwamba mbyomutenshi, niyani mulikoto wela kubula kucalwila musune nambi mbongolo yakendi ne kuya kwinwisha menshi pa busuba bwa Sabata?
But Jeshu answered and said to him, Hypocrite, doth not any one of you on the shabath loose his ox or his ass from the manger, and going giveth to drink?
16 Nomba uyo mutukashi mwana wa mumukowa wa Abulahamu uyo Satana ngwalasunga kwa byaka likumi ne bisanu ne bitatu, sena nkelela kusungululwa pa busuba bwa Sabata?”
But this daughter of Abraham, whom, behold, the Accuser hath bound eighteen years, is it not lawful to loose from this binding on the day of shabath?
17 Yesu mpwalambeco balwani bakendi balanyumfwa nsoni, nsombi bantu bonse balasangalala pabintu byonse byaina bikankamanisha mbyalensa.
And as he said these things, ashamed were all they who had risen up against him; and all the people rejoiced in all these wonders that were done by his hand.
18 Yesu walepusheti, “Anu bwami bwa Lesa bulyeti cani? Nomba ngandibukoshanisha necani?
Jeshu said, What doth the kingdom of Aloha resemble, and to what shall I compare it?
19 Bwakoshana ne luseke lwa mastadi ulo muntu ndwalabyala mulibala mwakendi. Mpolwalamena nekukula, calaba citondo cinene kayi ne bikeni byalabambilamo bisangala mumisampi yaco.”
It resembles a grain of mustard, which a man took (and) cast into his garden: and it grew, and became a great tree; and the fowl of the heaven built in its branches.
20 Kayi Yesu walepusheti, “Anu Bwami bwa Lesa ngandibukoshanisha necani?
Jeshu said again, To what shall I compare the kingdom of Aloha?
21 Bulyeti cikufufumusha shinkwa, ico mutukashi ncalasankanya ne bunga wakwana bikopo bitatu, kushikila byonse byalafutumuka.”
It is like leaven which a woman took; (and) hid in three satas of meal, until all had leavened.
22 Yesu mpalikuba pabulwendo bwakuya ku Yelusalemu, walenda muminshi kaya kwiyisha.
And he journeyed, teaching in the villages and in the cities, and going forwards to Urishlem.
23 Lino umbi muntu walepusha Yesu eti, “Mwami, sena ni bang'ana beti bakapuluke?” Yesu walakumbuleti,
ONE had demanded (of) him if they are few who are saved. But Jeshu said to them,
24 “Kamweleshani cangofu kwingila pacishinga cing'ana pakwinga ndamwambilingeti bantu bangi nibakeleshe kwingila, nsombi nteshi bakacikoshe.
Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for I say to you that many will seek to enter in, but shall not be able.
25 Lino mwine ng'anda nakanyamuke nekucala kucishinga. Lino amwe mwemana pansa nimukatatike kukonkosha ne kwambeti, ‘Kamutucalwilako.’ Nsombi nendi nakamukumbuleti, ‘Kandimwinshi nkomulafumini.’
From the hour that the Lord of the house shall have risen up and have shut the door, you may stand without, knocking at the door, and may begin to say, Our Lord, our Lord, open to us! But he will answer and say, I tell you that I know not whence you are.
26 Lino nimukatatike kwambeti, ‘Pasa twalikulya ne kunwa pamo nenjamwe kayi mwalikwiyisha muminshi yetu.’
And you shall begin to say, Before thee we have eaten and drunk, and in our streets thou hast taught.
27 Nsombi nakamwambileti kandimwinshi nkomulafumininga, fumani apa mwense babwipishi.
And he shall say to you, I know you not whence you are: depart from me, workers of falsity.
28 Lino nimukalile nekukokota meno, nimukabone Abulahamu ne Isaki ne Yakobo kayi ne bashinshimi bonse kabali mu Bwami bwa Lesa, nsombi amwe kamuli pansa.
There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you shall see Abraham and Ishok and Jakub and all the prophets in the kingdom of Aloha, but you be cast forth without.
29 Bantu nibakafume kucwe ne kumboshi ne kumusansa ne kunyika, kwisa kwikala nekulya mu Bwami bwa Lesa.
And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the south, and from the north, and shall recline in the kingdom of Aloha.
30 Lino abo balikunyuma nibakabe kuntangu naboyo balikuntangu nibakabe kunyuma.”
And, behold, there are last who shall be first, and there are first who shall be last.
31 Pacindi ico Bafalisi bambi balesa kuli Yesu nekumwambileti, “Kamufumani kuno, mwenga kumusena umbi pakwinga Helode layandanga kumushina.”
In that day came men from the Pharishee, saying to him, Remove, go from hence, because Herodes desireth to kill thee.
32 Nsombi Yesu walakumbuleti, “Kamuyani mumwambile uyo mwaba eti, ‘Ndafunyunga mishimu yaipa ne kushilika bantu lelo ne lilo. Lino pabusuba bwa butatu ninkapwishe incito yakame.’
Jeshu saith to them, Go, tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils and perform cures to-day and to-morrow, and the third day I am perfected.
33 Necikabeco ndelela kuba pa bulwendo lelo, ne lilo kayi ne busuba bwakonkapo, pakwinga nkacainapo mushinshimi kushinwa kumbi, nsombi ku Yelusalemu.”
Nevertheless it behoveth me to-day and to-morrow to work and the (day) after I shall go; because it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Urishlem.
34 “Obe Yelusalemu, Yelusalemu, weshikushina bashinshimi nekupwaya mabwe bantu abo Lesa mbwalatuma kuli njobe. Lingi ndalikuyanda kubunganya bantu mbuli ncoikute kwinsa inkuku pakufukatila twana twayo mumapapamino, nsombi obe walakana.”
Urishlem, Urishlem! killing the prophets, and stoning them that are sent to her, what times would I have gathered thy sons as the hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and you willed not!
35 Neco ng'anda ya Lesa inene iyi nikabe matongo. Ndamwambilingeti nteshi mukambonepo kayi kushikila mukambeti, “Walelekwa uyo lesanga mulina lya Mwami Lesa.”
Behold, left to you is your house a desert; for I say to you, that you will not see me until you shall say, Blessed is he who cometh in the name of the Lord.
