Maliko 8
1 Paliyawa kupita cindi citali sobwe, kayi bantu bangi balabungana kuli Yesu, nomba nkabalikukute cakulya, Yesu walakuwa beshikwiya bakendi ne kubambileti,
In those days, when there was a very great multitude, and they had nothing to eat, Yeshua called his disciples to himself and said to them,
2 “Ndanyumfwilinga luse bantu aba, pakwinga balekala ne njame kwa masuba atatu, kwabula cakulya.
“I have compassion on the multitude, because they have stayed with me now three days and have nothing to eat.
3 Na ndibambileti benga kwabo kabali ne nsala, nibawisukenga mu nshila, pakwinga nabambi bafuma kutali.”
If I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way, for some of them have come a long way.”
4 Beshikwiya bakendi balamwipusheti, “Nikupeyo muntu nkwelela kucana shinkwa wingi wakulyesha aba bantu bonse mucisuwa muno?”
His disciples answered him, “From where could one satisfy these people with bread here in a deserted place?”
5 Nendi Yesu walabepusheti, “Inga mukuteko shinkwa ungaye?” Nabo balakumbuleti, “Usanu ne ubili.”
He asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven.”
6 Lino walabambila bantu kwambeti bekale panshi. Neco walamanta shinkwa usanu ne ubili, walalumbaisha Lesa, walakomauna, nekupa beshikwiya bakendi kwambeti bayabile likoto lya bantu. Naboyo balensa copeleco.
He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground, and he took the seven loaves. Having given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples to serve, and they served the multitude.
7 Kayi balikukute tunswi twakubelengowa, walalumbaisha Lesa ne kubambileti nato batuyabe.
They also had a few small fish. Having blessed them, he said to serve these also.
8 Neco bonse balalya ne kwikuta, cakwinseti balayowela bishikulaka panshi ne kwisusha mitanga inene inene isanu ne ibili.
They ate and were filled. They took up seven baskets of broken pieces that were left over.
9 Palikuba bantu bashika pepi myanda makumi ana, Yesu balabambileti benga kwabo.
Those who had eaten were about four thousand. Then he sent them away.
10 Popelapo Yesu, walatanta mubwato pamo ne beshikwiya bakendi ne kuya ku cibela ca Dalamanuta.
Immediately he entered into the boat with his disciples and came into the region of Dalmanutha.
11 Kopeloko kwalashika Bafalisi balatatika kutotekeshana ne Yesu. Balikuyandeti ababoneshe chinshibisho chishikufumina kwilu pakuyanda kumwelekesha.
The Pharisees came out and began to question him, seeking from him a sign from heaven and testing him.
12 Yesu walashinshimuka mumoyo wakendi, walambeti, “Sena niciyani musemanowu colayandilinga kubona cinshibisho? Cakubinga ndambangeti, musemanowu nteti ukapewepo chinshibisho ciliconse sobwe.”
He sighed deeply in his spirit and said, “Why does this generation seek a sign? Most certainly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”
13 Mpwalambeco walabashiya ne kutanta bwato kuya kutala kwa lwenje.
He left them, and again entering into the boat, departed to the other side.
14 Nomba, balalubako kumanta shinkwa wingi, neco nkabalikukute ciliconse mubwatomo, nsombi shinkwa umowa.
They forgot to take bread; and they didn’t have more than one loaf in the boat with them.
15 walabacenjesheti, “Calukani menso! Cetukani ne cishikufufumusha ca Bafalisi ne ca Helode.”
He warned them, saying, “Take heed: beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod.”
16 Neco balatatika kukangana umo ne munendi pa nkani yakubula shinkwa.
They reasoned with one another, saying, “It’s because we have no bread.”
17 Yesu pakwinshibeco, walabambileti, “Inga mulakanganangeconi pa nkani yakubula shinkwa. Sena mpaka pacindi cino nkamuna munyumfwishisha ne kwinshiba bupandulushi bwakendi? Sena myoyo yenu icili mungubi?
Yeshua, perceiving it, said to them, “Why do you reason that it’s because you have no bread? Don’t you perceive yet or understand? Is your heart still hardened?
18 Nambi menso mulinawo sena nkamulabonesheshenga? Matwi mulinao sena nkamulanyumfwishishinga? Sena nkamulanukunga?
Having eyes, don’t you see? Having ears, don’t you hear? Don’t you remember?
19 Pasa mpondala komauna shinkwa usanu kwambeti ndyeshe batuloba myanda makumi asanu, sena mwalesusha mitanga ingaye ya byashalapo?” Beshikwiya bakumbuleti, “Likumi ne ibili.”
When I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Twelve.”
20 Yesu walabepusheti “Mpondalakomauna shinkwa usanu ne ubili ne kulyesha batuloba myanda makumi ana, mwalesusha mitanga ingaye?” Balakumbuleti “Isanu ne ibili”
“When the seven loaves fed the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Seven.”
21 Popelapo walambeti, “Sena nkamuna mwinshiba ncocilapandululunga?”
He asked them, “Don’t you understand yet?”
22 Yesu ne beshikwiya bakendi balashika ku Betisaida, uku bantu balamuletela muntu washipilwa, balamupapatila kwambeti amwikatekowa muntuyo.
He came to Bethsaida. They brought a blind man to him and begged him to touch him.
23 Popelapo Yesu walamwikata muntu washipilwa pacikasa nekuya nendi kunsa kwa munshi walamusankila mata mumenso ne kubika makasa palyendiye, ne kumwipusheti “Sena pali ncolabonongaponga?”
He took hold of the blind man by the hand, and brought him out of the village. When he had spat on his eyes, and laid his hands on him, he asked him if he saw anything.
24 Muntu washipilwa usa walakapula ne kukumbuleti, “Ee ndabononga bantu balendendenga.” Nomba balabonekengeti, “bitondo.”
He looked up, and said, “I see men, but I see them like walking trees.”
25 Kayi Yesu walabika makasa pamenso a muntu usa, neco walakapula nekutatika kubona. Walaba cena ne kuboneshesha cena bintu byonse.
Then again he laid his hands on his eyes. He looked intently, and was restored, and saw everyone clearly.
26 Yesu walamwambileti koya kucomwenu, ne kumwambilisheti, “Kotabwela mumunshiwu.”
He sent him away to his house, saying, “Don’t enter into the village, nor tell anyone in the village.”
27 Yesu ne beshikwiya bakendi pacindici balaya ku minshi yaku Kaisaleya waku Filipi. Mpobalikuya munshila, Yesu walabepusheti, “Inga bantu balambangeti njame bani?”
Yeshua went out, with his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, “Who do men say that I am?”
28 Balo beshikwiya bakendi balamukumbuleti, “Bambi balambangeti njamwe Yohane Mubatishi, nabambi balambangeti njamwe Eliya. Nsombi nabambi balambangeti, njamwe umo wabashinshimi bakulukulu.”
They told him, “Yochanan the Immerser, and others say Elijah, but others, one of the prophets.”
29 Yesu walabepusheti, “Inga amwe mulambangeti njame bani?” Petulo walakumbuleti, “Amwe Njamwe Klistu Mupulushi Wasalalwa ne Lesa.”
He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Messiah.”
30 Neco Yesu walabambileti, “Kamutambilapo muntu uliyense shanjame.”
He commanded them that they should tell no one about him.
31 Yesu popelapo walatatika kubeyisha beshikwiya bakendi kwambeti, “Mwana Muntu welela kunyumfwa bishikubaba, kupenshewa ne kukanwa ne beshimilumbo milumbo, ne bashikwiyisha milawo ne kumushina. Nsombi pabusuba bwatutatu, nakapundushiwe kubafu.”
He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
32 Yesu walabambila makani awa pantangalala. Nomba nendi Petulo walamutwala Yesu pa lubasu ne kumukansa.
He spoke to them openly. Peter took him and began to rebuke him.
33 Nendi Yesu walacebuka ne kulangila kwalikuba beshikwiya bakendi nabambi, ne kumucancalila Petulo mwabukalu eti. “Koyoko Satana obe, pakwinga miyeyo yakobe niya buntu, nteyo miyeyo ya Lesa sobwe!”
But he, turning around and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, “Get behind me, Satan! For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of men.”
34 Panyuma pakendi, Yesu walakuwa likoto lya bantu pamo ne beshikwiya bakendi, nekubambileti, “Muntu layandanga kunkonka ame alikane mwine, kayi alibambile kupeshewa, ne kufwa cebo ca kunkonkela.
He called the multitude to himself with his disciples and said to them, “Whoever wants to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
35 Pakwinga uliyense layandanga kupulusha buyumi bwakendi mwine, nakabutaye. Nomba uyo latayanga buyumi bwakendi pa cebo cakame, ne pacebo ca makani awa ayina, cakubinga nendi nakabupulushe.
For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it.
36 Inga caina cilipo nicipeyo na muntu uba ne bintu byonse bili pacishi capanshi, nomba ubutaya buyumi bwakendi butapu?
For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?
37 Inga nicani ico muntu ncelela kutika kwambeti buyumi bwancinencine butapu?
For what will a man give in exchange for his life?
38 Abo balanyumfwilinga insoni ne maswi akame pamenso abantu babula lushomo, kayi babwipishi, bopelabo Mwana Muntu nakabanyumfwile insoni akesanga pamo ne bangelo mu Mulemu bwa Baishi.”
For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of him when he comes in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
