Lukka 9
1 Wakiita bali kumi ababili mpawo wabapa nguzu anzumizyo aatala abadayimona boonse akuponia malwazi.
And having summoned the twelve, he gave them power and authority over all demons, and to heal diseases.
2 Wakabatuma kuyo kambawuka bwami bwa Leza akuyosilika bachiswa.
And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal those who were incapacitated.
3 Wakati kulimbabo, “Mutabwezi chintu mulweendo lwenu, nuuba mufunko, niiba nkomo, nichiba chinkwa, nichiba chimbi chizwaato.
And he said to them, Take nothing for the way, neither staffs, nor bag, nor bread, nor silver, nor have two coats each.
4 Kufumbwa ng'anda njimutakakanjile, amukakkale mulinjiyo mane mukeende.
And into whatever house ye may enter, remain there, and from there depart.
5 Kufumbwa nkubatakaleke kumutambula, nimwayoozwa mudolop eelyo muka kunkumune lusuko lwakumawulu aanu kunembo lyabo bukabe bukamboni kulimbabo.”
And as many as will not receive you, when departing from that city, also shake off the dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
6 Mpawo bakeenda biinda mum gunzi, kabayabwaambuula majwi mabotu akuyabuponia bantu koonse koonse.
And having departed, they passed through the villages, preaching the good news, and healing everywhere.
7 Lino Helodi naakamvwa aatala azyoonse zyakalikuchitika, wakali kataazya, nkaambo bamwi bakali kwaamba kuti Joni Mubbabbatizyi wakali wabuka kubafu,
But Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him. And he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John was risen from the dead,
8 alimwi kwakali kutegwa Elija wakali kuboneka, akuti bamwi basinsimi biingi bakale bakali babuka.
and by some that Elijah appeared, and by others that a prophet, one of the ancient men arose.
9 Helodi wakati, “Ndakamugonka mutwe Joni, mpo ngwani ooyu ngwelikumvwa aatala azeezi zintu?” Aboobo wakeezya kumubona.
And Herod said, I beheaded John, but who is this about whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.
10 Nibakabpoola batumwa, bakaambila Jesu zyoonse nzibakakuchita. Mpawo wakababweza, bakayinka kubusena bulikule kudolopo litegwa Bbetisayida.
And when the apostles returned, they related to him as many things as they did. And having taken them along, he withdrew in private into a desolate place of a city called Bethsaida.
11 Pesi makamu aabantu naakamvwa eezi akamutobela. Wakabatambula akwaambula kulimbabo aatala abwami bwa Leza, akuponia aabo bakalikuyanda kuponesegwa.
But the multitudes having known, they followed him. And having received them, he spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and he cured those who had need of healing.
12 lino buzuba sbwakali bwaamba kusika kumamanino, mpawo baikkumi ababili bakasika kulinguwe bati, “Wambila bantu aaba beende baye muma gunzi ali aafwiifwi bakayandule akoona achakulya, nkaambo ookuno nkutubede mbusena butakwe chintu pe.”
And the day began to decline, and the twelve having come near, they said to him, Send the multitude away, so that, after going into the villages and fields around, they may rest and find provision, because we are here in a desolate place.
13 Pesi we wakati kulimbabo, “Amubape chakulya ndinywe.” Bakati, “Tujisi biyo zinkwa zilimusanu abaswi babili- kunze aakuti twiinke tukawulile bantu boonse aaba chakulya.”
But he said to them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, There are for us not more than five loaves and two fishes, unless, after going, we might buy food for all this people.
14 (Kwakali baluumi bakalikusika zyuulu zisanu.) Wakati kuli basikwiiya bakwe “Amubaambile bakkale muzibunga zyamakkumi musanu.”
For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down in groups of fifty each.
15 Aboobo bakachita mbubakaambilwa bakkazika bantu aansi.
And they did so, and made them all sit down.
16 Wakabweza zinkwa zilimusanu abaswi babili, wakalanga kujulu, wakazilongezya mpawo wakazikwamuuna, mpawo wakapa kuli basikwiiya kuti baabile bantu.
And after taking the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to heaven, he blessed them, and broke in pieces, and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude.
17 Boonse bakalya bakuta, bufwefwelenga bwakabweezelelwa bwakachaala bwakali kuzuzya zisuwo zili kumi azibili
And they ate, and were all filled. And there were taken up to them of the remaining fragments, twelve baskets.
18 Chakasika chiindi chakuti Jesu wakalikukomba alike, basikwiiya bakali anguwe. Wakabuzya kuti, “Makamu aabantu ati ndimeeni?”
And it came to pass, as he was praying privately, the disciples were with him. And he questioned them, saying, Who do the multitudes say that I am?
19 Bakasandula kuti, “Joni Mubbabbatizyi. Pesi bamwi bati Elija, mpawo bamwi bati umwi musinsimi wakale wakabuka.”
And having answered, they said, John the immerser, but others, Elijah, and others, that a certain prophet of the ancient men arose.
20 Mpawo wakati kulimbabo, “Pesi nywe muti ndimeni?” Pita wakasandula kuti, “Munanike Kkilisito wa Leza.”
And he said to them, But ye, who say ye that I am? And having answered, Peter said, The Christ of God.
21 Pesi wakabadidimizya chamanguzu kuti bataambili muntu pe,
But having chided them, he commanded to tell this to no man,
22 kati, “Mwana wa Muntu welede kusyonsegwa kuzintu zyiingi akukakwa abapati, bapati babapayizi antoomwe abalembi bamulawu, mpawo uzojiigwa mpawo mubuzuba bwatatu uzobuka.”
saying, It is necessary for the Son of man to suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scholars, and be killed, and the third day to rise.
23 Mpawo wakati kuli mbabo boonse, “Na kwaba muntu uyanda kunditobela weelede alikake abweze chiingano chakwe abuzuba anditobele.
And he said to all, If any man wants to come behind me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
24 Ooyo uyanda kutabilila buumi bwakwe uyoobuswekelwa, pesi ooyo uyoswekelwa buumi bwakwe nkaambo kandime uyoobubamba.
For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever may lose his life because of me, this man will save it.
25 Niinzi chibotu kuti muntu ajane nyika yoonse, pesi akasweekelwe abumi bwakwe?
For what is a man benefited, having gained the whole world, but having lost or having forfeited himself?
26 Ooyo uufwa bweeme nkaambo kangu amajwi aangu, alakwe Mwana wa Muntu uyofwa bweeme nayooza mubulemu bwakwe, bulemu bwa Wisi abangelo basalala.
For whoever may be ashamed of me and of my words, the Son of man will be ashamed of this man when he comes in his glory, and of the Father, and of the holy agents.
27 Pesi ndatki kulindinywe nchobeni, kulibamvwi biimvwi aawa batayi kuyoomvwa lufu kabatana bona bwami bwa Leza.”
But I tell you truly, there are some of those who stand here, who will, no, not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.
28 lino pmusule lyamazuba musanu aatatu Jesu kali waamba majwi aaya, wakabweza Pita a Joni a Jemusi mpawo wakatanta kalundu kuyookomba.
And it came to pass about eight days after these sayings, that after taking Peter and John and James, he went up onto the mountain to pray.
29 Nakali kukomba busyu bwakwe bwakasanduka, mpawo zisamo zyakwe zyakatuba chakwiindilizya.
And as he was praying, the appearance of his face became different, and his clothing glistening white.
30 Mpawo amulange, baalumi bobile bakali kwaambula aawe, Mozesi a Elija,
And behold, two men talked with him, who were Moses and Elijah,
31 bakaboneka muchiimo chabulemu bupati. Bakali kwaambula aatala akwenda kwakwe, oko nkwakali walangila kweeta kumamanino mu Jelusalemu.
who, having appeared in glory, spoke of his departure, which he was going to fulfill at Jerusalem.
32 Lino Pita abaabo bakali aawe bakali fwide biya akoona, pesi nibakasinsimuka, bakabonuna bulemu bwakwe abaalumi bobile bakayimvwi aawe.
But Peter and those with him were weighed down with sleep, and having become awake, they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him.
33 Aawo nibakali kuyobusosoloka kuzwa kuli Jesu, Pita wakati kulinguwe, “Mwami, nchibotu kulindiswe kuti katuli aano. Atuyake zitumba zyotatwe, chimwi chako, chimwi cha Mozesi, achimbi cha Elija” (taakwe nakezi nzyaakali kwaambuula).
And it came to pass, as they were departing from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here, and we could make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah, not knowing what he was saying.
34 Kachaambuula oobu, joba lyakasika lyabavumba, mpawo bakayoowa nibakanjila mujoba.
And while he was speaking these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them. And they were afraid as they entered into the cloud.
35 Ijwi lyakamvwika mujoba kaliti, “Ooyu mwana wangu, uusalidwe; amumuswiilile.”
And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son. Hear ye him.
36 Ijwi nilyakamana kwaambula Jesu waka chaala kali aalike. Bakawumuna alimwi taakwe ngubakaambila pe mumazuba aayo anzibakabona.
And at the occurrence of the voice, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent, and informed no man in those days any of the things that they have seen.
37 Likno mubuzuba bwakatobela, nibakaselela mukalundu, inkamu yabantu mpati yakamutambula.
And it came to pass, on the next day, when they came down from the mountain, a large crowd met him.
38 Amulange umwi mwaalumi kuzwa munkamu wakoompolola, kati, “Muyiisyi, ndakombelela ulange mwana wangu, nkaambo ngomwana wangu alike.
And behold, a man from the crowd cried out, saying, Teacher, I beseech thee to look upon my son, because he is the only begotten to me.
39 Langa, muuya nga wamujata mpawo nga wasanguna kukwiila; zimupa kusuntuka mpawo nga wazwa fulu kumulomo. Tuufwaambani kumuleka pe alimwi umupa kuchubbuuka kapati.
And lo, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out, and it convulses him with foaming. And it departs from him difficultly, injuring him.
40 Ndakumbila basikwiiya bako kuti bawutande pesi bakachilwa.”
And I begged thy disciples that they might cast it out, and they could not.
41 Jesu wakasandula wati, “Nywebo nozyalane litasyomi, ndeelede kuba aandinywe kwachiindi chilamfu biyeni akukkala aandinywe? Yeta mwana wako aano.”
And having answered, Jesus said, O faithless and perverted generation, how long will I be with you and endure you? Bring thy son here.
42 Nakalikuyobuza mulombe ooyu, muuya wakamuwisizya aansi akumusuntula. Pesi Jesu wakawulayilila muuya mubi akumuponia, akumubwedezya kulo wisi.
And as he was still coming, the demon tore him, and he convulsed. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
43 Mpawo bakagamba abupati bwa Leza. Aawo kabachigamba boonse aali nzyakali wachita, wakati kulo basikwiiya bakwe,
And they were all amazed at the majesty of God. But while all were wondering at all the things which Jesus did, he said to his disciples,
44 “Aaya majwi ayelede kunjila loko mmatwi eenu: Mwana wa Muntu uzowabwa kumaanza abaalumi.”
Place ye these sayings into your ears, for the Son of man is going to be delivered up into the hands of men.
45 Pesi tebakamvwisisisya nzyakalikwaamba. Zyakasiswa kuli mbabo, aboobo tebakaziba nchizyaamba. Alimwi bakayoowa kuti babuzye aatala amajwi aaya.
But they did not understand this saying, and it was concealed from them, so that they did not perceive it. And they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
46 Mpawo kwakabuka kukazyania aatala akuti ngwani aakati kabo utaazobe mupati kwiinda bamwi.
But a thought entered among them, which of them may be greater.
47 Pesi Jesu naakaziba zyakali mumyoyo yabo, wakabweza mwana muniini wamweeta kubbazu lyakwe
But having perceived the thought of their heart, having taken a child, Jesus stood it beside him,
48 mpawo wakati kulimbabo, “Ooyo uutambula mwana ooyu muzina lyangu, utambula ndime, ayooyo uutambula ndime, utambula ooyo wakandituma. Nkaambo ooyo muniini akati kenu ngonguwe mupati.”
and he said to them, Whoever may receive this child in my name receives me, and whoever may receive me receives him who sent me, for he who exists smaller among you all, this man will be great.
49 Joni walkasandula wati, “Mwami, twabona umwi muntu kalikutanda madayimona muzina lyako pesi twamukasya, nkaambo takutobeli pe antoomwe andiswe.”
And having answered, John said, Master, we saw a certain man casting out demons in thy name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us.
50 “Tamumukasyi pe,” Jesu wakasandula, “nkaambo ooyo uutamulwani nguwenu.”
But Jesus said to him, Do not forbid, for he who is not against us is for us.
51 Nakaswemna mazuba akuti atolwe kujulu, wakabikka budyu bwakwe kuti baye ku Jelusalema.
And it came to pass, while fulfilling the days for his ascension, that he also set his face to go to Jerusalem.
52 Wakatma batumwa kunembo lyakwe, bakayinka bakunjila mulilimwi kgunzi lyama Samaria kabamubambila zyoonse.
And he sent agents before his face, and they went. And having gone, they entered into a village of Samaritans, so as to make ready for him.
53 Pesi bantu bamugunzi eelyo tebakamutambula pe nkaambo wakalikutozya ku Jelusalema.
And they did not receive him, because his face was going to Jerusalem.
54 Basikwiiya bakwe nibakachibona eechi, bakati kulinguwe, “Mwami, uyanda kuti twiite mulilo na kuzwa kujulu iunbanyonyoone boonse?”
And his disciples James and John having seen, they said, Lord, do thou want that we should call fire to come down from the sky, and consume them, as also Elijah did?
55 Pesi wakabalanga wabakalalila,
But having turned around, he rebuked them, and said, Ye do not know what kind of spirit ye are.
56 mpawo kbakaya kulilimbi gunzi.
For the Son of man came not to destroy the lives of men, but to save. And they went to another village.
57 Kabayobweenda munzila, umwi muntu wakati, “Ndilakutobela koonse nkotakaye.”
And it came to pass while they went on the way, a certain man said to him, I will follow thee wherever thou may go, Lord.
58 Jesu wakati kulinguwe, “Baswumpe bali aabulyango, atuyuni twamujulu tuli azizoumbo, pesi mwana wamuntu takwe mpanga ulasegezya mutwe wakwe.”
And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky, nests, but the Son of man has not where he might lay his head.
59 Mpawo wakati kuli umwi, “Nditobele.” Pesi wakati, “Mwami, Ndizumine ndikavwike taata wangu sansi.”
And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, allow me first, after departing, to bury my father.
60 Pesi wakati kulinguwe, “Leka bafu bavwikke bafunyina. Pesi webo, yinka ukakambawuke kule aatala abwami bwa Leza.”
But Jesus said to him, Leave the dead to bury their own dead, but thou, after departing, proclaim the kingdom of God.
61 Mpawo umwi wakati, “Ndilakutobela, Mwami, pesi ndizumine ndooneke aabo bali amuunzi
And also another said, I will follow thee, Lord, but first allow me to bid farewell to those in my house.
62 wangu.”Jesu wakamusandula wati, “Taakwe uubikka kubo kwakwe
But Jesus said to him, No man, having put his hand to a plow, and looking to things behind, is fit for the kingdom of God.
