< Luke 10 >

1 Now after these things, the Lord also appointed seventy others, and sent them two by two ahead of him into every city and place where he was about to come.
Awo oluvannyuma lw’ebyo Yesu n’alonda abayigirizwa abalala nsanvu mu babiri, n’abatuma babiri babiri bamukulembere bagende mu buli kibuga ekinene, na buli kifo mwe yali anaatera okutuuka.
2 Then he said to them, “The harvest is indeed plentiful, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore to the Lord of the harvest, that he may send out laborers into his harvest.
N’abagamba nti, “Eby’okukungula bingi, naye abakozi abakungula batono. Noolwekyo musabe nannyini nnimiro, aweereze abakozi mu nnimiro ye.
3 Go your ways. Behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.
Kale, mugende. Kyokka mbatuma ng’abaana b’endiga mu misege.
4 Carry no purse, nor wallet, nor sandals. Greet no one on the way.
Temugenda na nsimbi era temutwala nsawo ya kusabiriza wadde omugogo gw’engatto, ate temubaako gwe mulamusa mu kkubo.
5 Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house.’
“Buli nnyumba gye muyingirangamu musookanga kugamba nti, ‘Emirembe gibeere mu nnyumba eno.’
6 If a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.
Ennyumba eyo bw’eneebangamu omuntu ow’emirembe, emirembe gyammwe ginaabeeranga ku ye, bwe kitaabenga bwe kityo, emirembe gyammwe ginaabaddiranga.
7 Remain in that same house, eating and drinking the things they give, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Don’t go from house to house.
Mu nnyumba omwo, mwe musookedde, munaalyanga era ne munywa nabo, kubanga omukozi asaanira empeera ye. Temuvanga mu nnyumba emu ne mudda mu ndala.
8 Into whatever city you enter and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you.
“Buli kibuga kye mutuukangamu ne babaaniriza, mulyenga ebyo bye babawadde okulya.
9 Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘God’s Kingdom has come near to you.’
Muwonyenga abalwadde abalimu, era mugambenga abantu abo nti, ‘Obwakabaka bwa Katonda bubasemberedde.’
10 But into whatever city you enter and they don’t receive you, go out into its streets and say,
Naye bwe muyingiranga mu kibuga kyonna ne batabaaniriza, mulaganga mu nguudo zaakyo ne mugamba nti,
11 ‘Even the dust from your city that clings to us, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that God’s Kingdom has come near to you.’
‘N’enfuufu ekwatidde ku bigere byaffe tugibakunkumulira. Naye mumanye kino nti obwakabaka bwa Katonda busembedde.’
12 I tell you, it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.
Mbategeeza nti ku lunaku luli, Sodomu kigenda kugumiikirizika okusinga ekibuga ekyo.
13 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
“Zikusanze, ggwe Kolaziini! Naawe zikusanze, Besusayida! Kubanga ebyamagero ekyakolerwa mu mmwe, singa byakolerwa mu Ttuulo ne mu Sidoni, abantu baamu bandibadde beenenya dda, nga bambadde n’ebibukutu nga batudde mu vvu okulaga nti beenenyezza.
14 But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
Naye Ttuulo ne Sidoni birisaasirwa okusinga mmwe ku lunaku olw’okusalirako omusango.
15 You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades. (Hadēs g86)
Ate ggwe Kaperunawumu, oligulumizibwa okutuuka mu ggulu? Nedda, ogenda kuserengesebwa wansi emagombe. (Hadēs g86)
16 Whoever listens to you listens to me, and whoever rejects you rejects me. Whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
“Buli abawuliriza mmwe aba awulirizza Nze, na buli abanyooma aba anyoomye Nze, n’oyo anyooma Nze aba anyoomye eyantuma.”
17 The seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!”
Awo abayigirizwa ensavu mu ababiri bwe baakomawo, nga basanyuka ne bategeeza Yesu nti, “Mukama waffe, ne baddayimooni baatugondera mu linnya lyo.”
18 He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.
Yesu n’abagamba nti, “Nalaba Setaani ng’agwa okuva mu ggulu ng’okumyansa kw’eraddu!
19 Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you.
Laba mbawadde obuyinza okulinnya ku misota ne ku njaba ez’obusagwa n’okuwangula amaanyi gonna ag’omulabe. Era tewali kigenda kubakola kabi.
20 Nevertheless, don’t rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
Naye temusanyuka nnyo kubanga baddayimooni babagondera, wabula mujaguze nti amannya gammwe gawandiikiddwa mu ggulu.”
21 In that same hour, Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.”
Mu kiseera ekyo Yesu n’ajjula essanyu ku bwa Mwoyo Mutukuvu n’agamba nti, “Nkutendereza Kitange, Mukama w’eggulu n’ensi, kubanga wakweka ebintu bino abagezi n’abayivu, naye n’obibikkulira abaana abato. Weewaawo Kitange, bw’otyo bwe wasiima.
22 Turning to the disciples, he said, “All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him.”
“Kitange yankwasa ebintu byonna. Tewali amanyi Mwana wabula Kitange, era tewali amanyi Kitange wabula Omwana awamu n’abo Omwana b’asiima okubamubikkulira.”
23 Turning to the disciples, he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,
Awo n’akyukira abayigirizwa be n’abagamba mu kyama nti, “Mulina omukisa mmwe okulaba bino bye mulaba.
24 for I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.”
Kubanga mbagamba nti, bannabbi bangi ne bakabaka bangi abaayagala okulaba bye mulaba n’okuwulira bye muwulira naye tekyasoboka.”
25 Behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Kale laba omunnyonnyozi w’amateeka n’asituka, ng’ayagala okugezesa Yesu, n’amubuuza nti, “Omuyigiriza, nsaana nkole ki okusikira obulamu obutaggwaawo?” (aiōnios g166)
26 He said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”
Yesu n’amuddamu nti, “Kyawandiikibwa kitya mu mateeka? Gagamba gatya?”
27 He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”
Omunnyonnyozi w’amateeka n’addamu nti, “‘Yagalanga Mukama Katonda wo n’omutima gwo gwonna, n’emmeeme yo yonna, n’amaanyi go gonna, n’amagezi go gonna.’ Era ‘yagalanga muliraanwa wo nga naawe bwe weeyagala.’”
28 He said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”
Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Ozzeemu bulungi. Kale kolanga bw’otyo oliba mulamu.”
29 But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?”
Naye omunnyonnyozi w’amateeka okwagala okulaga nga bw’ali omutuufu n’agamba Yesu nti, “Muliraanwa wange ye ani?”
30 Jesus answered, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
Yesu n’amuddamu nti, “Waaliwo omuntu eyali ava e Yerusaalemi ng’aserengeta e Yeriko, n’agwa mu banyazi, ne bamukwata ne bamwambulamu engoye ze ne bazimutwalako, ne bamukuba nnyo, ne bamuleka awo ku kkubo ng’abulako katono okufa.
31 By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
Awo kabona eyali tategedde n’ajjira mu kkubo eryo, naye bwe yatuuka ku musajja ng’agudde awo ku kkubo n’amwebalama bwebalami n’amuyitako.
32 In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.
Omuleevi naye yamutuukako n’amulaba, n’adda ku ludda olulala olw’oluguudo, n’amuyitako buyisi
33 But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion,
Naye Omusamaliya bwe yali ng’ali ku lugendo lwe mu kkubo eryo, n’atuuka omusajja we yali; bwe yamulaba n’amukwatirwa ekisa,
34 came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
n’ajja w’ali, n’amunyiga ebiwundu ng’ayiwako amafuta, ne wayini ebiwundu n’abisibako ebiwero. Awo n’ateeka omusajja ku nsolo ye n’amutwala mu nnyumba esulwamu abatambuze, n’amujjanjaba.
35 On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the host, and said to him, ‘Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.’
Enkeera Omusamaliya n’addira ddinaali bbiri n’aziwa nannyini nnyumba. N’amugamba nti, ‘Nkusaba omujjanjabe, era ensimbi ezizo zonna z’olikozesa nga zino ze nkulekedde ziweddewo, ndizikuddizaawo nga nkomyewo.’”
36 Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”
“Kale olowooza, ku bantu abo abasatu aluwa eyali muliraanwa w’omusajja oli eyagwa mu banyazi?”
37 He said, “He who showed mercy on him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”
Omunnyonnyozi w’amateeka n’addamu nti, “Oyo eyamukolera ebyekisa.” Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Naawe genda okole bw’otyo.”
38 As they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
Awo Yesu n’abayigirizwa be nga bali ku lugendo lwabwe, ne batuuka mu kabuga akamu, omukazi erinnya lye Maliza n’asembeza Yesu mu maka ge.
39 She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard his word.
Yalina muganda we erinnya lye Maliyamu. N’atuula awo wansi ku bigere bya Yesu, ng’awuliriza ebigambo Yesu bye yali ayogera.
40 But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she came up to him, and said, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister left me to serve alone? Ask her therefore to help me.”
Naye Maliza yali yeetawula mu mirimu ng’ategekera abagenyi, n’ajja awali Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Mukama wange, tofaayo ng’olaba muganda wange andekedde emirimu nzekka?”
41 Jesus answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things,
Naye Mukama waffe n’amuddamu nti, “Maliza, Maliza, ebintu ebikutawaanya bingi,
42 but one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
naye waliwo ekintu kimu kyokka ekyetaagibwa, Maliyamu alonze omugabo omulungi ogutagenda kumuggyibwako.”
