Luuka 15
1 lino avasongesia songo na vahosi avange vakisa kwa Yesu na kukumpulikisia uYesu.
Then drew near to him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.
2 avaFarisayi vooni navalembi vakajing'ulasia viiti,” umuunhu uju ikuvupila avanya sambi nambe kulia navo.
And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receives sinners, and eats with them.
3 uYesu akajova ikighwani iki kuvanave akati,
And he spoke this parable to them, saying,
4 “ghweveni kulyumue, ndeve ali ning'olo kilundo neke jimonga jisova, ikusileka isingi sila fijigho budikalubale na budika lubale na kuluta kulonda jino jisovile kuhanga ajaghe?
What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, does not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?
5 ghwope kya ajaghile akujipinda pamavegha kumo ahovwike.
And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
6 angafike pakaja, ikuvakemhela avamanyani na vabadingani vake pe ikuvavula kuuti, hovokagha palikimo nune, ulwakuva ing'olo jango jino jikasovile nijaghile.
And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.
7 vule vule nikuvavula kuuti luliiva lukelo kukyanya pano umuhosi jumo ilaata inyivi, kukila vwimila avaanhu fijigho budikalubale na budika lubale, avagholofu avasila vufumbue vwa kulaata.
I say to you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repents, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.
8 nambe kwale umukijuuva veni juno ali ni ndalama kijigho, neke angasovelue nu lutalama lumo, kya ikunga itaala nakufyaghila inyumba na kulonda kungufu sooni kuhanga ikulwagha?
Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, does not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it?
9 kyande alyaghile ikuvakemhela avamanyani na vabading'ani vake na kukuvavula hovokagha palikimo nune, ulwakuva ulutalama lwango luno lukasovile nilwaghile.
And when she has found it, she calls her friends and her neighbors together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost.
10 nambe ndikio nikuvavula,” pwelule ulukelo pa vulongolo pa vanyaMhola va Nguluve vwimila unyasambi jumo juno ilaata.
Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repents.
11 na ju Yesu akati,” umuunhu jumonga alyale na v vaaswambe vavili,
And he said, A certain man had two sons:
12 un'debe jula akam'bua uviise ghwake akati, baba umhele uvuhasi vwango neke akaghava ikyuma kyake kuveene.
And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me. And he divided to them his living.
13 ifighono nafinga, un'debe jula akakong'ania foni fino finoghile akaluta ku iisi ija kuvutali, ukuo akalia fivi indalama sa mwene, akaghulila ni finu fino nailonda, akavombela fivi indalama samwene kunyivi.
And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
14 ghwope ye amalile fyoni ilijala likingila mu isi jila pe umwene akatengula kuva mulondi.
And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.
15 akaluta kwa muunhu jumonga ghwa mu iisi jila, ghwope akan'twala kumughunda ghwake ku suvila ingube.
And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
16 akava inoghelua kulia amabandu ghano ingube salisagha ulwakuva nakwale umuunhu juno akampelile ikinu kyokyoni alie.
And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave to him.
17 pe un'debe jula akasagha mu mwojo ghwake akati, ava vombi valingi ava baba ghwango vilia filingi ifyakukwilana najune pwenile apa nifua ni n'jala!
And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!
18 nivuka niluta kwa baba ghwango na kukumbula,” Baba nihokile kwa Nguluve na pa maaso ghako.
I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before you,
19 naninoghile kukemhelua n'swambo kange, um'bike nive mumo muvavombi vako.
And am no more worthy to be called your son: make me as one of your hired servants.
20 pepano akaluta kwa viise ghwake. ye akyale kutali uviise ghwake akamwagha akam'bonela ikisa akaluta luvilo akamuyayila na kumunonela.
And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.
21 u mwana jula akam'bula akati,” Baba nihoile kukyanya kwa Nguluve na pa vulongolo pa maaso ghako, naninoghile kukemhelua n'swambo.
And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight, and am no more worthy to be called your son.
22 uviise jula akavavula avavombi vake; mulete ng'hani ng'ahi umwenda unono kyongo mun'fwasie. Mun'fwasie ni pele mu kyove ni filatu mumaghulu.
But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:
23 kange mulete ing'ombe jino jinonile muhinje tulie na kuhovoka.
And bring here the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:
24 ulwakuva umwanango alyale afwile mwope mwumi. alyasovile ghwope avonike vakatengula kululutila.
For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
25 pe baho umwanake um'baha jula alyale kumughunda. akatile ikwisa alipipi ni nyumba akapulika ilisio ilya nyimbo na kuseja.
Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing.
26 akan'kemhela um'bombi jumonga akam'posia agha kwe kuti kiki?
And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
27 um'bombi akam'bula akati,” ununavo isile ubaba ghako amuhijile ing'ombe jino jinonile ulwakuva agomwika n'kafu.
And he said to him, Your brother is come; and your father has killed the fatted calf, because he has received him safe and sound.
28 un'swambe um'baha akakalala akasita kukwingila mun'kate pe uviise akahuma kunjikumpelepesia.
And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and entreated him.
29 neke akamwamula iviise ghwake akati,” lola une nikuvombile amaka minga nambe nanipunisivue indaghilo sako, neke numhelile nambe kapene kuuti, nihovoke navamanyani vango.
And he answering said to his father, See, these many years do I serve you, neither transgressed I at any time your commandment: and yet you never gave me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
30 neke atile isile un'swambo uju juno alile fivi ikyuma kyako palikimo na vaghenda mwalu umuhinjile ing'ombe jino jinonile.
But as soon as this your son was come, which has devoured your living with harlots, you have killed for him the fatted calf.
31 uviise akam'bula akati,” n'swambango, ulipalikimo nune ifighono fyoni, ni fyoni fino nilinafyo fye fyako.
And he said to him, Son, you are ever with me, and all that I have is yours.
32 lino lunoghile kulyusue kuvomba ikikulukulu na kuhovoka, unyalukolo ghwako uju hwene akafwile na lino mwumi; akasovile ghwope avonike.
It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this your brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.
