Luka 8
1 Gwejile gwalabhao mwanya mufuyi Yesu namba okugenda mumisi emitoto ne misi minene, nasimula no kulasha emisango jo bhwana jo bhukama bhwa Nyamuanga na bhaliya ekumi na bhabhili bhagendaga amwi nage.
Shortly afterwards, Jesus went on a journey through the towns and villages, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. With him went the Twelve,
2 kutyo kutyo bhagasi bhalebhe bhanu bhaliga bhaosibhwe okusoka ku masambwa amabhibhi na malwae gabhuli mbaga. Aliga ali Maliyamu unu atogwaga Magedalena unu aliga asosibhweko amasabwa saba.
as well as some women who had been cured of wicked spirits and of infirmities. They were Mary, known as Mary of Magdala (from whom seven demons had been expelled),
3 Yowana omugasi wa Kuza na omukulu wa Helode, Susana, na bhagasi abhandibhamfu, bhanu bhasosishe ebhinu bhyebhwe kwainjuno yebhwe abhene.
and Joanna (the wife of Herod’s steward, Chuza), and Susannah, and many others – all of whom provided for Jesus and his apostles out of their own resources.
4 Bhejile abhanu bhamfu bhakekumanya amwi, bhalimo na bhanu bhajaga kumwene okusoka mumisi jabhuli mbaga, alomele nabho kwebhijejekanyo.
Once, when a great crowd was collecting, and, when the people of town after town were flocking to Jesus, he spoke to them in the form of a parable,
5 Omuyambi agendele okubhibha jimbibho, anu aliga nayamba, jimbibho ejindi nijigwa kumbali ya injila nijilibhatwa emwalo ya magulu, na jinyonyi ja mulutumba nijijilya.
‘The sower went out to sow his seed; and, as he was sowing, some of the seed fell along the path and was trodden on; and the wild birds ate it up.
6 Jimbibho ejindi nijigwa ingulu ya mayalu ganu gali kulutale na jejile jamela nijamba ofuka nijiotoka kulwokubha aliga gutalio munyililo.
Other seed fell on rock, and, as soon as it began to grow, because it had no moisture, it withered away.
7 Jimbibho ejindi nijigwa mumati na mumawa, amati ago agamawa nigakula amwi na jimbibho ejo niga jinyiga.
Other seed fell in the middle of brambles, but the brambles grew up with it and choked it entirely.
8 Nawe jimbibho ejindi jaguye mumayalu ga kisi nijibhula amatwasho kukila egana.”Yesu ejile amala okwaika amagambo ago, alomele kwo bhulaka bhunene naikati,”Wona wona unu ali na matwi no gwe.”
Other seed fell into rich soil, and grew, and gave a hundredfold return.’ After saying this, Jesus cried aloud, ‘Let those who have ears to hear with hear.’
9 Lindi abheigisibhwa bhae nibhamubhusha ingulu ye chijejekanyo echo,
His disciples asked Jesus the meaning of this parable.
10 Yesu nabhabhila ati,”Muyanibhwe okumenya imbisike yo bhukama bhwa Nyamuanga, tali abhanu abhandi abheeigisibhwa ku lwebhijejekanyo ela, koleleki bhakalola bhatajakulola na bhakongwa bhatajakusombokelwa.'
‘To you,’ he said, ‘the knowledge of the hidden truths of the kingdom of God has been imparted, but to others in parables only, so that though they have eyes they may not see, and though they have ears, they may not understand.
11 Na inu niyo insonga ye chijejekanyo chinu. Imbibhoni nigambo lya Nyamuanga.
This is the parable – The seed is God’s message.
12 Jimbibho jinu jaguye ayeyi na kunjila nibho bhanu bhanu abhongwa omusango, omusoko shetani nalisoshamo mumioyo jebhwe, koleleki bhasige okwikilisha nokuchungulwa.
By the seed which fell along the path are meant those who hear the message; but then comes the devil and carries away the message from their minds, to prevent their believing it and being saved.
13 Jinu jaguye kulutale ni bhanu bhanu abhongwa omusango nokugulamila kwo kusandabha nawe bhatali na misi jonajona, abhekilisha kwo mwanya mufuyi, no mwanya gwokulegejibhwa nibhagwa.
By the seed which fell on the rock are meant those who, as soon as they hear the message, welcome it joyfully; but they have no root, and believe it only for a time, and, when the time of temptation comes, they draw back.
14 Na jimbibho jinu jaguye mumawa ni bhanu bhanu abhongwa omusango, nawe bhakagendelela okukula nibhaingililwa nokufulubhendela obhunibhi no bhukonde bhwo bhulame na bhatakwibhula matwasho.
By that which fell among the brambles are meant those who hear the message, but who, as they go on their way, are completely choked by this world’s cares and wealth and pleasures, and bring nothing to perfection.
15 Nawe jimbibho jinu jaguye mumayalu gakisi nibhanu bhanu, bhali nobhikeyi ne mioyo jakisi, bhakongwa omusango abhaligwatilila na abhebhula amatwasho go kwikomesha.
But by that in the good ground are meant those who, having heard the message, keep it in the good, rich soil of their hearts, and patiently yield a return.
16 Woli anu, atalio nolo umwi, unu kakongesha itala naifundikila naimbakuli au naita mubhutalaasi. Nalema okuita kungango koleleki bhuli unu kengila abhone okuilola.
‘No one sets light to a lamp and then covers it with a bowl or puts it underneath a couch, but they put it on a lamp-stand, so that anyone who comes in may see the light.
17 Kulwokubha chitalio chinu chiliseleka nichilema okumenyekana, au chonachona chinu chili cha mumbisike chinu chitali bhonekana kubwelu.
Nothing is hidden which will not be brought into the light of day, not ever kept hidden which will not some day become known and come into the light of day.
18 Kulwejo nubhe mwengeso anu ulabhaga nutegelesha. Kulwokubha unu ali nacho, kongesibhwa lindi, nawe unu atanacho nolo kanu alinako akatilu kona akagegibhwa.”
Take care, then, how you listen. For, to all those who have, more will be given; while, from all those who have nothing, even what they seem to have will be taken away.’
19 Eile nyilamwene Yesu na bhamula bhabho nibhaja kumwene bhatamulebhelee kulwokubha lyaliga lilio eijo enene lya bhanu.
Presently Jesus’ mother and brothers came where he was, but they were not able to join him because of the crowd.
20 Nibhamubhwila,”Nyokomwana na bhamula bhanyu bhalianja abhakwenda.
So word was brought to him – “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
21 Nawe Yesu, nabhasubhya naikati,”Mayi wani na bhamula bhasu ni bhanu abhongwa omusango gwa Nyamuanga no kugwimako.”
His reply, spoken to them all, was, ‘My mother and my brothers are those who listen to God’s teaching and do what it says.’
22 Munaku ejo Yesu na bheigisibhwa bhae nibhalinya mubhwato, nabhabhwila ati, “Chambuke chigende ku ngego ya kabhili yo mwalo.” Nibhachumachuma obhwato bhwebhwe.
One day about that time, Jesus got into a boat with his disciples and said to them, ‘Let us go across the lake.’
23 Nawe bhejile bhamba okwimuka, Yesu namama naongela, nomuyaga mwamfu ogwe chiule, obhwato bhwebhwe nibhwijula amanji bhaliga bhali munyanko nene muno.
So they put off. While they were sailing, Jesus fell asleep. A squall swept down on the lake, and their boat was filling and they were in danger.
24 Bheile abheigisibhwa bhae nibhamwimusha, nibhaikati,”Latabhugenyi mkulu! Latabhugenyi mkulu! chiliayeyi okufwa!”Nemuka nagonya omuyaga na makonjo ga manji nigafungama na ndibha etole.
So the disciples came and roused him. ‘Sir, Sir,’ they cried, ‘we are lost!’ Jesus rose and rebuked the wind and the rushing waves, and they fell, and a calm followed.
25 Lindi nabhabhwila ati,”Elikilisha lyemwe liliaki?”Nibhobhaya, Nibhatanga'ngala, nibhaikana bhuli munu no wejabho,”Unu niga, unu kagonya omuyaga na manji nigafung'ama?”
‘Where is your faith?’ he exclaimed. But in great awe and amazement they said to one another, ‘Who can this be, who commands even the winds and the waves, and they obey him?’
26 Nibhakinga mumusi gwa Gelasini inu ili inyuma yo musi gwa Galilaya.
They reached the region of the Gerasenes, which is on the opposite side to Galilee,
27 Yesu ejile atuka nataja kuchalo, omunu umwi okusoka mujini, nabhugangana nage, no munu unu aliga ali na masabhwa. kwo mwanya mulela aliga atakufwala ngubho, na aliga atakwikala munyumba, tali aliga nekala enu bhasikaga abhafuye.
and, on getting ashore, Jesus met a man, who had demons in him, coming out of the town. For a long time this man had worn no clothing, and he had not lived in a house, but in the tombs.
28 Ejile amulola Yesu nalila kwo bhulaka, nagwa ansi imbele yae. kwo bhulaka bhunene naikati, Nakoleleki anye kwawe, Yesu omwana wa Nyamuanga unu ali ingulu? Enikulembeleja, utaja kunyasha anye”
Catching sight of Jesus, he shrieked out and threw himself down before him, and in a loud voice exclaimed, ‘What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you not to torment me.’
29 Yesu nalagilila amasabwa ago amabhibhi gamusokeko omunu oyo, kulwokubha mwanya mwamfu aliga asalile. Nolwo kutyo aliga abhoelwe ne minyololo no kutulwa ansi yo bhangalisi, abhutulaga nokulibhasibhwa okukinga mwibhala.
For Jesus was commanding the foul spirit to come out of the man. On many occasions it had seized him, and, even when secured with chains and fetters, and watched, he would break through anything that bound him, and be driven by the demon into the wilds.
30 Yesu namubhusha ati,”Lisina lyao nawega?”nasubhya naikati, “Legioni”Kulwokubha amasabwa mamfu gengiye kumwene.
‘What is your name?’ Jesus asked. ‘Legion,’ he answered (for many demons had taken possession of him);
and the demons begged Jesus not to order them away into the bottomless pit. (Abyssos g12)
32 Liijo lya jingulubhe lyaliga ndilebhwa ingulu ya libhanga, nibhamulembeleja abhabhile bhengile mu ngulubhe. Nabhekilisisha bhakole kutyo.
There was a herd of many pigs close by feeding on the hill-side; and the demons begged Jesus to give them leave to enter into them. Jesus gave them leave.
33 Kulwejo amasabwa ago nigamusokako omunu oyo nigengila mungulubhe, na liijo nilibhilimila kuchima nibhagwilila mumanji nibhafwila omwo.
They came out from the man and took possession of the pigs; and the herd rushed down the steep slope into the lake and were drowned.
34 Abhanu bhanu bhaliga nibhalebha jingulubhe ejo bhejile bhalola chinu chabhao, nibhabhilima na nibhajaokwaika mumusi na mumisi jinu jaliga jibheindileko.
When the men who tended them saw what had happened, they ran away, and carried the news to the town, and to the country round.
35 Abhanu bhejile bhakongwa ago nibhaja okulola jinu jabhonekana, na nibhaja ku Yesu nibhamulola omunu amasabhwa galiga gamusokeleko. aliga afwae kisi na ali no bhwenge bhwa kisi, enyanjile kumagulu ga Yesu, nibhobhaya.
The people went out to see what had happened, and, when they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting, clothed and in his right mind, at Jesus’ feet; and they were awe-struck.
36 Niwo oumwi webhwe unu alolele chinu chabhonekene namba okubhabhwila abhandi kutyo omunu oyo unu aliga natangasibhwa na masabhwa kutyo eulisibhwa.
Those who had seen it told them how the possessed man had been delivered.
37 Abhanu bhona abhomukowa gwa Wagelasi na bhanu bhaliga bhasijene nibhamusabhwa Yesu abhasokeko kulwokubha bhaliga bhali no bhubha bhamfu. Nengila mubhwato nasubhayo.
Then all the people in the region of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to leave them, for they were terrified. Jesus got into a boat and returned.
38 Omunu unu asosibhweko emisabhwa namulembeleja Yesu agende nage, nawe Yesu namubhwila agende no kwaikati,
The man from whom the demons had gone out begged Jesus to let him be with him; but Jesus sent him away.
39 “Subha mumusi gwao na ubhale gona ganu Nyamuanga akukolela”. Omunu oyo nagenda, nalasha mumusi gwona ganu Yesu amukolela omwene,
‘Go back to your home,’ he said, ‘and relate the story of all that God has done for you.’ So the man went through the whole town and proclaimed, as he went, all that Jesus had done for him.
40 Yesu nasubha, abhanu bhamfu nibhamulamila, kulwokubha bhona bhaliga bhamutegelee.
On his return, Jesus was welcomed by the people; for everyone was looking out for him.
41 Lola naja munu umwi unu atogwaga Yailo ni umwi wa bhatangasha mulikofyanyisho. Yailo nagwa mumagulu ga Yesu namwilembeleja agende ika ewae.
And a man named Jairus, who was a synagogue leader, came to Jesus, and threw himself at Jesus’ feet, with entreaties that he would come to his house,
42 Kulwokubha aliga ali no mwana muyala umwila, unu aliga ali ne miyaka kumi ne bhili, ali mumwanya gwo kufwa. Anu aliga nagenda, bhanu bhamfu nibhamuiganya omwene.
because his only daughter, who was about twelve years old, was dying. As Jesus was going, the people were pressing closely round him.
43 Omugasi unu aululaga insagama kwe miyaka ekumi ne bhili aliga alio awo amalile jiela jae kubhafumu, nawe atalio na umwi unu aliga amuosishe.
And a woman, who had suffered from haemorrhage for twelve years, and whom no one could cure,
44 Naja inyuma ya Yesu nakunyako kwipindo lyo mwenda gwae, aonao okusoka insagama kwae nikutemekela.
came up behind and touched the tassel of his cloak. Instantly the haemorrhage ceased.
45 Yesu naikati, Niga unu ankunyako?”Bhejile bhalema bhona, Petelo naikati, Latabhugenyi, abhanu ni bhamfu munu bhanu abhakukula no kukuiganya.”
‘Who touched me?’ Jesus asked; and, while everyone was denying having done so, Peter exclaimed, ‘Why, Sir, the people are crowding round you and pressing against you!’
46 Nawe Yesu naikati,”Omunu umwi ankunyako, okubha namenya amanaga gansokamo.”
‘Somebody touched me,’ said Jesus, ‘for I felt that power had gone out from me.’
47 Omugasi ejile alolati atakutula kuseleka chinu akola, namba okuyalala, nagwa ansi imbele ya Yesu nabhwila abhanu bhona chinu chakola amukunyeko na kutyo eulisibhwa aonao.
Then the woman, when she saw that she was discovered, came forward trembling, and threw herself down before him; and, in the presence of all the people, she told him her reason for touching him, and that she had been cured instantly.
48 Neya naika nage ati,”Muyala, elikilisha lyao lyakola ubhe muanga. Genda no mulembe.”
‘Daughter,’ he said, ‘your faith has delivered you. Go, and peace be with you.’
49 Mbe anu aliga achaika, omunu umwi naja okusoka munyumba yo mutangasha we likofyanyisho, naikati,”Omuyansha wao afuye. Siga okumunyasha omwiigisha.”
Before he had finished speaking, someone came from the house of the synagogue leader and said, ‘Your daughter is dead! Do not trouble the teacher further.’
50 Nawe Yesu ejile ongwa kutyo, namusubhya naikati,”Utaja kubhaya. Ikilishala, nakakila.”
But Jesus, hearing this, spoke to the leader, ‘Do not be afraid; only have faith, and she will yet be delivered.’
51 Mbe bhejile bhengila munyumba eyo, atekilisishe munu undi okwingila nage, tali Petelo, Yowana na Yakobho, esemwene omwana na nyila mwene.
When he reached the house, he did not allow anyone to go in with him, except Peter, John, and James, and the child’s father and mother.
52 Ao abhanu bhona bhaliga nibhalila kwo bhulaka, nawe naikati,”Musige okusekana, achali kufwa, nawe amamilela.”.
And everyone was weeping and mourning for her. ‘Do not weep,’ Jesus said, ‘she is not dead; she is asleep.’
53 Nawe nibhamuseka kwo kumugaya, okubha bhaliga bhamenyele ati afuye.
They began to laugh at him, for they knew that she was dead.
54 Nawe omwene, namugwata omuyala okubhoko, nabhilikila kwo bhulaka, naika ati,”Mwana imuka”
But, taking her by the hand, Jesus said in a loud voice, ‘Child, rise!’
55 Omwoyo gwae nigusubhamo, nemuka omwanya ogwo ogwo, Nabhalagilila ati, ayabhwe echinu cho kulya abhone okulya.
The child’s spirit returned to her, and she instantly stood up; and Jesus ordered them to give her something to eat.
56 Abhebhusi bhae nibhalugula, nawe nabhabhwila bhasiga kubhwila munu kutyo jabha.
Her parents were amazed, but Jesus impressed on them that they were not to tell anyone what had happened.
